Abstract
This was an iatrogenic case of acute angle closure induced by an anterior displacement of the irido-lenticular complex, secondary to the use of acetazolamide. The treatment of this condition involves suspending the drug responsible and applying topical corticosteroids, hypotensive and cycloplegic eye drops, with the aim of lowering the eye pressure and the degree of myopia due to the re-positioning of the irido-lenticular complex.
