Abstract

The article is a review of Russian and foreign literature on the problem of angle-closure glaucoma with a plateau iris, methods of its diagnostics and treatment. More than 80 sources of Russian and foreign literature about the problems of diagnostics and treatment of angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) with a plateau iris were analyzed. There are differences in the classification of this disease in foreign practice, namely the differentiation of plateau iris configuration and plateau iris syndrome, which influences the choice of treatment. The analysis pointed out the specifics of diagnostics of this form of glaucoma. The prevailing majority of authors note that patients with PACG with plateau iris have an average depth of the anterior chamber. However, there are studies that prove the opposite. The review also reveals features of the structure and position of the ciliary body and its processes based on the results of anterior segment optical coherence tomography and ultrasonic biomicroscopy. As for the treatment methods, in case of PACG with a plateau iris, hypotensive medication cannot be considered the therapy of choice. Preference is given to laser and surgical methods of treatment. However, at present, there is no consensus on the most effective and safe methods leading to the anterior chamber angle opening and intraocular pressure level stabilization.
