Unusual Presentation of Phacolytic Glaucoma: Simulating Microbial Keratitis
The differential diagnoses for phacolytic glaucoma are acute angle closure glaucoma, open angle glaucoma with uveitis, neovascular glaucoma, and glaucoma secondary to trauma. We report an unusual case where the dislocated cataractous lens firmly adherent to the corneal endothelium evoked a cellular reaction similar to phacolytic glaucoma but clinically appeared like a deep corneal abscess. The ...
متن کاملOcular snow storm: an unusual presentation of phacolytic glaucoma.
DESCRIPTION A 65-year-old man presented with bilateral progressive diminution of vision since the past 2 years. He had loss of vision and pain in the right eye since 2 months. He had no history of acute red eye/trauma/surgery. He had visual acuity of perception of light with accurate projection of rays in the right eye. There was white fluffy material pouring from the lens and settling in the a...
متن کاملA case of phacolytic glaucoma with anterior lens capsule disruption identified by scanning electron microscopy
BACKGROUND Phacolytic glaucoma is induced by lens protein or macrophages that have leaked through a macroscopically intact anterior lens capsule. Here, we report a case of phacolytic glaucoma with anterior lens capsule disruptions visualized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). CASE PRESENTATION A 71-year-old man was referred to our institute for increased intraocular pressure (IOP) in the ...
متن کاملCytological diagnosis of phacolytic glaucoma utilizing millipore filtration of the aqueous.
An 88-year-old man of Ukrainian descent complained of decreasing vision of 20 years' duration. Vision had painlessly and progressively decreased in the right eye until 8 years before admission, when he had been struck in the right eye with a tree branch and sustained a laceration of the upper lid. Subsequently, there was further decrease in vision of the right eye. One week before admission, re...
متن کاملIdentification of heavy-molecular-weight soluble protein in aqueous humor in human phacolytic glaucoma.
Aqueous humor was obtained by paracentesis at the time of cataract surgery from six patients with phacolytic glaucoma, diagnosed on the basis of acute unilateral open-angle glaucoma associated with an apparently leaking hypermature or mature cataract, and from six control patients with immature cataracts. Three of the latter had primary open-angle glaucoma. Quantities of heavy-molecular-weight ...
