Pigment dispersion syndrome and pigmentary glaucoma are two conditions characterized by pigment dispersion originating from the posterior part of the iris and its accumulation on the trabecular meshwork, corneal endothelium, and anterior surface of the lens. The pigment on the trabecular meshwork can cause chronic inflammation with a secondary reduction of its function and an increase in intraocular pressure. The case presented represents a typical example of pigmentary glaucoma in a myopic patient in which all the signs, symptoms, and complications typical of these pathologies were present. We report and describe an 8-year-long follow-up period with clinical and instrumental examinations.
色素播散综合征和色素性青光眼是两种以虹膜后部色素播散及其在小梁网、角膜内皮和晶状体前表面积聚为特征的疾病。小梁网上的色素可引起慢性炎症，继而导致其功能减退和眼压升高。本文呈现的病例是一名近视患者色素性青光眼的典型例子，具备这些病症所有典型的体征、症状和并发症。我们报告并描述了一个长达8年的随访期，期间进行了临床和仪器检查。
