Abstract

The article presents a case study of a 20-year-old man who was taken to a clinic because of uncontrolled intraocular pressure (IOP). He had an increased IOP that had been detected seven years ago with the use of slit-lamp assisted biomicroscopy wherein it revealed a deep anterior chamber and a widely open anterior chamber angle at gonioscopy in both eyes. The patient's development of glaucomatous optic nerve damage may have his abnormally thick cornea or other cornea related factors.
