Abstract
In 1948, Posner and Schlossman first reported glaucomatocyclitic crisis, an uncommon form of glaucoma characterized by recurrent unilateral episodes of markedly elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) with mild idiopathic anterior chamber inflammation. The exact etiology of glaucomatocyclitic crisis is not clear. Although it is typically a self-limited condition, some cases with advanced optic nerve cupping and associated visual field loss have been reported. Diagnosis of Posner-Schlossman syndrome is difficult, and it may mimic a variety of ocular disorders. Treatment of this syndrome is directed towards controlling the inflammation and associated IOP elevation.
