摘要：
A 50-year-old, white, pseudophakic man who had a neodymium:YAG (Nd:YAG) posterior capsulotomy for capsule opacification developed a persistent rise in intraocular pressure (IOP) associated with a flat anterior chamber. Full-thickness patent iridotomy performed with an Nd:YAG laser did not reduce IOP. A-scan ultrasonography showed aqueous pockets in the vitreous, leading to a diagnosis of malignant glaucoma. Medical therapy comprising atropine, phenylephrine, mannitol, and acetazolamide normalized IOP and resolved the clinical findings.
