Background Argon laser peripheral iridoplasty (ALPI) is proved to be effective in lowering intraocular pressure (lOP) of patients with mild acute primary angle closure (APAC). It is unclear whether this laser tr...
Background Many studies indicated that short-term and long-term intraocular pressure (IOP) fluctuations in primary open angle glaucoma patients might lead to glaucomatous progression. However, seldom study has evalu...
