ABSTRACT
Introduction: neovascular glaucoma is the type of secondary glaucoma common
in diabetic patients; it is caused by the formation of fibrovascular membrane at the
camerular angle as a result of angiogenic stimulus due to ocular ischemiagenerating
diseases. The proliferative diabetic retinopathy patients may suffer this
difficult-to-treat disease that represents a threat to the vision of a patient.
Objective: to review clinical aspects, pathogenenesis, diagnosis methods and
treatment of the neovascular glaucoma with a view to preventing or reducing the
vision loss.
Development: neovascular glaucoma is a complication of diabetes mellitus and of
other general diseases, which brings about significant reduction of vision and often
blindness. The most frequent eye diseases responsible for this are central retinal
vein occlusion, proliferative diabetic retinopathy and ocular ischemic syndrome,
leading to retinal and choroid ischemia with resulting formation of neovessels.
Conclusions: education aimed at diabetic patient and the adequate therapeutic
treatment of the diabetic retinopathy is important to prevent the occurrence of
neovascular glaucoma.
