Phacolytic glaucoma the lens to become cloudy and gradually turn opaque, causing a decrease in vision. Through the leakage of proteins that have a high molecular weight an obstruction of the drainage mechanism of the eye is caused. A variety of procedures can be used to physically diagnose phacolytic glaucoma as there are a variety of other types of glaucoma which may be confused with phacolysis such as acute angle-closure glaucoma (AACG), lens-particle glaucoma, neovascular glaucoma, phacomorphic glaucoma and uveitic glaucoma which can cause confusion in which procedures need to be conducted to revamp vision. The first type of diagnosis procedure referred
Normal tension glaucoma nerve head, in the absence of elevated IOP. While the excavation of the optic nerve head and the thinning of its rim appear in all kinds of glaucoma (with high tension and with normal tension,in Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and in secondary glaucoma), small hemorrhages close to the optic disc have been identified as a characteristic clinical sign of normal tension glaucoma. Visual field is very important to detect NTG. It shows a defect that typically appear deeper, steeper and closer to fixation comparing to patients with POAG. Since NTG is closely linked to vascular irregularities, a medical check-up
