| pubmed-article:12910204 | pubmed:abstractText | We report the case of a 35-year-old Asian woman presenting with bilateral anterior uveitis with hypopyon associated with high intraocular pressure. In her past history, she described intermittent angle-closure episodes. Anterior chamber examination and ultrasound biomicroscopy revealed a creeping angle-closure glaucoma. This clinical entity can affect Asians. The angle is gradually shortened with an iris bombé that brings the peripheral iris close to the external angle wall. The acute episodes are often poorly symptomatic. An early diagnosis may prevent glaucoma damages. | lld:pubmed |
