Abstract

The most distinct difference between the 2 subgroups in the cluster analysis was TCA, suggesting that the position of the CB is important in subclassifying PAC. By using UBM, clinicians may obtain more clues about the mechanisms of PAC; in turn, they may learn to predict the IOP-lowering effects of LPI.
