摘要
Bilateral angle closure glaucoma is a rare ocular emergency which can be a potentially blinding condition. A case of 72 years male, who developed headache and vomiting after five days of demise of his mother followed by blurring of vision. He was taken to the general hospital where all the routine tests and CT Scan head failed to reveal the cause. After two days of admission, patient was referred for ophthalmic consultation. On ocular examination he was diagnosed as a case of bilateral angle closure glaucoma. After two hours of treatment patient was comfortable with normal intraocular pressure and reasonably good vision.
