High-Yield Explanation
Types of lens-induced glaucoma'sCausesMechanismPhacomorphicIntumescent cataract, Anterior subluxation or dislocation of LENs and spherophakia Swollen lens pushes iris forwards and obliterates the angle -secondary acute angle closure glaucoma-pupillary block and iris bombe formation Phacolytic Hypermature (Morgagnian) cataract Trabecular meshwork clogged by lens proteins and macrophages have phagocytosed the lens proteins -secondary open-angle glaucomaLens paicle glaucoma Lens paicles left after accidental. Planned ECCE, Following traumatic rupture of lens Trabecular meshwork blocked by lens paicles floating in aqueous humour-secondary open-angle glaucomaGlaucoma with phacogenic uveitis Uveitis Trabecular meshwork clogged by lens proteins and macrophages have phagocytosed the lens proteins -secondary open-angle glaucomaGlaucoma with phacoanaphylaxis Inflammatory reaction due to antigen-antibody reaction Trabecular meshwork clogged by lens proteins and macrophages have phagocytosed the lens proteins -secondary open-angle glaucoma(Refer: AH Khurana, Comprehensive Textbook of Ophthalmology, 5th edition, pg: 247-48)
