Siderotic glaucoma is a rare and challenging clinical scenario caused by a retained iron intraocular foreign body (IOFB), which results in irreversible vision loss. Presented here is a case of secondary open-angle glaucoma in a 36-year-old man that was refractory to maximal medical therapy. A meticulous history and careful clinical examination revealed that he had a penetrating trauma 15 years ago, a self-sealed corneal entry wound, open angles, a retained encapsulated metallic IOFB and siderosis bulbi. Removal of the foreign body not only controlled intraocular pressure, but also improved vision.
铁锈沉着性青光眼是一种由眼内异物(IOFB)存留铁所致的罕见且具有挑战性的临床情况,可导致不可逆的视力丧失。本文介绍了一例36岁男性继发性开角型青光眼病例,该病例对最大程度的药物治疗无效。详细的病史询问和仔细的临床检查发现,他15年前曾有穿透性外伤,角膜伤口已自行愈合,房角开放,有一个存留的包裹性金属眼内异物及眼球铁锈症。取出异物不仅控制了眼压,还改善了视力。
