Anterior segment morphology after laser iridotomy in primary angle closure suspects

ConclusionsLaser peripheral iridotomy induces significant changes in the 3‐D anterior segment morphology in primary angle closure suspect patients. The Scheimpflug‐Placido disc topographer provides reproducible measurements of the iridocorneal angle and other parameters measured and hence, may become clinically useful for non‐invasive detection of potentially occludable angles. Predictors of iridocorneal angle widening after iridotomy were older age and anterior chamber volume.
