  • Neovascular Glaucoma (Malik Y. Kahook, MD)

    Neovascular Glaucoma (NVG) presents as a secondary open-angle or secondary closed-angle glaucoma, depending on the extent of fibrovascularization and synechiae formation in the drainage angle. The abnormal vessels form in response to ischemia of the retina and are composed of highly permeable thin walls (lacking a muscular layer or normal adventitia) with absence of tight intercellular junctions.

  • Iridocorneal Endothelial (ICE) Syndrome (Malik Y. Kahook, MD)

    ICE Syndrome is a group of corneal diseases that have in common corneal endothelial pathology, iris atrophy and in many cases, secondary angle closure glaucoma.

    Long Anterior Zonules (LAZ) are characterized by zonular fibers that extend more central than usual on the anterior lens capsule (normal insertion is about 1.5-2 mm anterior to equator).
