色素性青光眼是一种罕见的青光眼,其特点是常发生于男性青年近视眼患者。发病率随年龄增长而下降,有些病例随着时间的推移病情可得到改善。这种青光眼可能是由于色素对滤帘的阻塞及损伤所致。色素来源于虹膜的神经上皮层,在虹膜周边部形成裂隙呈放射状色素脱失。色素播散遍及晶体的前部,聚集于晶体后表面的周边部、虹膜的前表面、角膜内皮及滤帘中。Sugar(1966)曾称该色素扩散为色素播散综合征,本命名用于色素不足以引起青光眼者。 Pigmented glaucoma is a rare glaucoma, which is characterized by frequent occurrence in male young patients with myopia. The incidence declines with age and in some cases the condition improves over time. This glaucoma may be due to the pigment blocking the curtain and damage caused. Pigment from the iris of the neural epithelium, the iris in the formation of fissures radial radial pigment loss. Pigment disseminated throughout the front of the crystal, gathered in the peripheral surface of the crystal, the front surface of the iris, corneal endothelial and filter curtain. Sugar (1966) once referred to the pigment as a disseminated pigment, which is named after the pigment is not enough to cause glaucoma.
