PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of @entity2092 ( @entity2092 ) on intraocular pressure (IOP) and the anterior chamber angle in primary angle closure after @entity1897 ( @entity1897 ). SETTING: Tertiary eyecare center at a university hospital, New Delhi, India. DESIGN: Prospective case series. METHODS: The study included eyes with primary angle closure and an IOP over 25.0 mm Hg more than 8 weeks after @entity1897 . All eyes had @entity2092 by phacoemulsification. Absolute success was defined as an IOP less than 18.0 mm Hg without medications at 12 months. RESULTS: In 44 eyes (24 @entity1 , 20 @entity1 ; mean age 57.2 years    4.2 [SD]), the mean preoperative IOP of 27.1    1.55 mm Hg decreased to 13.2    1.12 mm Hg at 12 months (P < .0001). The angle opening distance at 500  m increased from baseline values at 0 degrees (from 0.104    0.015 mm to 0.31    0.013 mm) and 180 degrees (from 0.202    0.008 mm to 0.412    0.012 mm). The trabecular iris angle also increased at 0 degrees (from 9.3    3.2 degrees to 32.7    5.6 degrees) and 180 degrees (from 9.12    3.2 degrees to 31.7    5.6 degrees) (all P < .0001). In multivariate analysis, the preoperative IOP was the strongest determinant of IOP change (R(2) = 0.69, P < .0001). Absolute success was achieved in 38 eyes (86.3%). CONCLUSION: Clear lens extraction led to a significant reduction in IOP, a widening of the anterior chamber angle, and a reduced need for @entity551 medications in eyes with primary angle closure and persistently raised IOP after @entity1897 .
