UBM is a good tool to confirm diagnosis
magnificent!
are there any other supplement test beside gonioscopy to to make a confirm diagnosis of plateau iris syndrome???
by definition, they can go into closure despite a pi. one typically needs to do iridoplasty with the argon laser to keep angle open.
Do these patients benifit from a peripheral YAG iridotomy?
