1
Neovascular glaucoma (NVG) is a secondary glaucoma caused by neovascularization of the iris and anterior chamber angle, often due to ischemic retinal diseases.
-
2
Diagnosis of NVG involves slit-lamp examination, gonioscopy, and multimodal imaging techniques like ultrawidefield fluorescein angiography.
-
3
Management of NVG focuses on suppressing neovascularization and treating underlying retinal ischemia, often requiring anti-VEGF therapy and panretinal photocoagulation.
-
4
Despite advances in treatment and imaging, NVG remains challenging to manage, with high rates of vision loss and surgical failure.
-
5
Long-term success in NVG treatment necessitates integrated care that combines antiangiogenic therapies with effective management of retinal ischemia.
