Abstract

Copyright 2020, SLACK Incorporated. The authors present a case of poorly controlled glaucoma following lensectomy. An examination under anesthesia revealed iris bombe of the anterior vitreous face. This case helps emphasize the importance of a generous anterior vitrectomy at the time of lensectomy in the pediatric population to avoid secondary glaucoma. [J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2020;57:e48-e50.].
