Peripheral retinal vascular abnormalities in primary infantile glaucoma

Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging. 2011 Dec 21:42 Online:e144-6. doi: 10.3928/15428877-20111215-01.

Abstract

Two patients with primary infantile glaucoma were imaged with fluorescein angiography during an examination under anesthesia. Both patients were found to have abnormal peripheral retinal vasculature and non-perfusion. These findings may represent a previously unrecognized retinal vascular component of primary infantile glaucoma.
