Aim: to estimate the efficacy of anterior chamber angle reconstruction with lens extraction and IOL implantation in chronic angle-closure glaucoma The results of treatment in 60 eyes of 52 patients (12 males and 40 females) are analyzed. Mean age of the patients was 63.7±3.7 years. Mean IOP before operation was 38 mm Hg (Mentor pneumatonograph Model 30), mean visual acuity 0.32. All the patients used hypotensive eyedrops, 18 Aim: to estimate the efficacy of anterior chamber angle reconstruction with lens extraction and IOL implantation in chronic angle-closure glaucoma The results of treatment in 60 eyes of 52 patients (12 males and 40 females) were analyzed.
