Malignant glaucoma is characterized by increased intraocular pressure (IOP) accompanied by shallowing or flattening of the anterior chamber, despite patent iridec-tomy and the presence of a normal posterior segment.A 76-year-old man was referred with raised IOP and shallow anterior chamber. The patient had a history of uncomplicated extracapsular cataract extraction with implantation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens in his left eye. At presentation he had uncorrected visual acuity of 6/38. With a combination of brimonidine tartrate bid, latano-prost and timolol fixed combination eye drops once a day, and acetazolamide 250 mg tid the patient had an IOP of 24 mm Hg in the left eye. The anterior chamber of the left eye was very shallow and the iris was nearly touching the corneal endothelium, but there was still some space between the iris and the endothelium in the periphery.
