Case report of secondary angle closure glaucoma from a Soemmering's ring presenting with episodes of transient total monocular vision loss
We describe a rare presentation of painless recurrent TMVL resulting from secondary angle closure caused by a Soemmering's ring. This case highlights the importance of retaining intermittent IOP elevation on the differential diagnosis for TMVL.
