Pseudophakic angle-closure 14 Years after cataract surgery: a case report and systematic review of the literature
This case underscores the significant challenges in establishing an accurate diagnosis in cases of secondary angle closure in pseudophakic patients, particularly when presentation occurs many years after uncomplicated cataract surgery. The overlap of clinical features among rare entities, such as aqueous misdirection and late-onset CBS, further complicates the diagnostic process. Prompt recognition and timely intervention remain essential to prevent the potentially severe consequences of the condition.
