  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A 70-year-old male had had recurrent attacks of bilateral open-angle glaucoma secondary to iritis during the past 8 years. A single instillation of latanoprost in his right eye was followed by exacerbation of iritis. The intraocular pressure (IOP) was 28mmHg before, 45mmHg 2 days and 55mmHg 3 days after instillation. Topical and systemic corticosteroid induced remission of iritis and reduction of IOP below 22mmHg. This case illustrates that topical latanoprost may induce acute exacerbation of glaucoma secondary to active iritis. Due precaution is advocated in the use of latanoprost in such cases.
