Laser iridectomy relieves pupillary block and is the procedure of choice for angle-closure glaucoma. Since not all cases of angle closure glaucoma are due to this mechanism, iridectomy is not always curative. Argon laser peripheral iridoplasty causes a contraction of peripheral iris away from the trabecular meshwork, and is useful in these circumstances. We successfully treated bilateral acute angle-closure glaucoma in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome with this procedure.
激光虹膜切除术可缓解瞳孔阻滞，是闭角型青光眼的首选治疗方法。由于并非所有闭角型青光眼病例都是由这种机制引起的，所以虹膜切除术并不总是能治愈。氩激光周边虹膜成形术可使周边虹膜远离小梁网收缩，在这些情况下很有用。我们用这种方法成功治疗了一名获得性免疫缺陷综合征患者的双侧急性闭角型青光眼。
