摘　　要：Angle-closure glaucoma is more common in people who are farsighted,and in those of Asian descent.People who are in danger of developing this condition have naturally narrow anterior chamber angles,which blocks the passage of aqueous fluid out of the eye's anterior chamber.This causes the pressure inside the eye to rise and damage the optic nerve,resulting in perma・nent vision loss.
