Research Article: Paracentral Acute Middle Maculopathy Following Acute Primary Angle Closure and Acute Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma

Introduction:
Acute primary angle closure (APAC) and acute primary angle closure glaucoma (APACG) are ocular emergencies that are vision-threatening diseases that can lead to blindness and require urgent treatment. Sudden blockage of the angle results in a rapid elevation of intraocular pressure (IOP) to a critical level, leading to retinal ischemia. Numerous animal studies have shown that despite physiological autoregulation, the foveal microcirculation is significantly affected by elevated IOP, particularly within the deep…
