Iris Puncture for Angle Closure Glaucoma

In this procedure, the provider makes two puncture like openings in the iris to rapidly decrease pressure in the eye due to a blockage caused by the iris bowing forward because of an accumulation of fluid between the iris and the lens, known as an iris bombe. This condition results in a form of glaucoma known as angle closure glaucoma. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries.
