  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 62-year-old female was seen by us 11 years before. Corrected visual acuity was light perception right and 0.3 left. The left eye showed hyperopia of+7.5 diopters. Corneal diameter was 10.5mm in either eye.The ocular axis length was 17.2mm right and 16.8mm left. Her left eye developed acute glaucoma following subluxation of the lens 7 years before which was controlled by laser iridotomy. The left eye underwent cataract surgery with intraocular lens implantation 2 years before. The left eye developed elevated IOP 11 months before which was controlled by instillation of dorzolamide. Three months after dorzolamide was replaced by topical latanoprost, acute glaucoma developed due to pupil block. Laser iridotomy followed by dorzolamide instillation brought the IOP under control. This case illustrates that topical latanoprost may induce acute glaucoma in a nanophthalmic eye with extensive angle closure.
