Lymphoproliferative Diseases of the SkinThe primary therapy of angle-closure diseases is completely different to that of open-angle glaucoma, therefore their terminology, classifications and therapies are described in detail. Primary angle-closure is a diagnosis of exclusion, so find out all causes for secondary glaucomas.

Genetic Analysis for Lynch Syndrome,Steroids are the drugs that are most likely to increase the outflow resistance in the chamber angle. However, there are several other drugs taken topically or systemically that affect the width of the pupil and the ciliary body and may therefore induce an angle closure.

History of Gonioscopy,Gonioscopy – the examination of the structures of the chamber angle – is 100 years young. Starting with direct gonioscopy and followed by indirect gonioscopy, it is still one of the most important examinations for differential diagnosis in glaucoma and proper surgeries.

Contort

Development of the Chamber Angle and Developmental Disorders,Knowledge of the development of the angle structures helps understand the configuration of a regular chamber angle and of different developmental disorders. Some examples of these disorders are described.

Grading Systems and Documentation,Grading systems are necessary to define the diagnosis of open-angle or angle-closure glaucoma and their prestages. They are based on gonioscopy and/or on slitlamp examinations. Several grading systems are described in detail. Documentation of examination findings is important for communication and follow-up.

Open Angle and Glaucoma,The changes in the chamber angle in primary open-angle glaucoma and secondary open-angle glaucoma are discussed. Primary open-angle glaucoma is a diagnosis of exclusion, so a knowledge of the causes of secondary glaucomas is important.
