Predictive Factors for Ocular Hypertension and Glaucoma Secondary to Uveitis: Insights from a Tertiary Referral Hospital
UG/OHT-SU is a specific condition that affects a notable proportion of uveitis patients in Turkey, requiring a multidisciplinary approach. In patients with uveitis, elevated peak IOP, pronounced anterior chamber reaction and synechia formation are crucial factors in the progression to glaucoma and the escalating necessity for surgical intervention. Early and effective control of inflammation is needed to prevent progression to refractory glaucoma and vision loss in these patients.
