How is acute angle glaucoma diagnosed?
To determine if laser iridotomy is indicated, the surgeon must first determine if and how the angle is occluded.
How many acute angles does a acute angle have?
1 acute angle = 1 acute angle
Does an acute has 17 degrees?
An acute angle is an angle less than 90°. So an angle of 17° is an acute angle.
Which is larger an acute acute or an obtuse angle?
Acute angle = <90 degrees Right angle = 90 degrees Obtuse angle = >90 degrees To answer your question, obtuse angle is larger.

What are alternatives to trabeculectomy?
Lasers are now used to treat both closed-angle and open-angle glaucoma. Peripheral iridectomy is used for people with acute angle-closure glaucoma attacks and chronic closed-angle glaucoma
What are the two types of glaucoma?
Chronic Glaucoma refers to open-angle glaucoma, where the increase in eye pressure happens slowly over time without obvious symptoms initially. Acute Glaucoma refers to angle-closure glaucoma, which occurs suddenly with severe symptoms like pain, redness, and blurred vision, requiring urgent medical attention.

Why is Atropine contraindicated in patients pre-disposed to narrow angle glaucoma?
Atropine is contraindicated in patients predisposed to narrow-angle glaucoma because it can cause pupil dilation (mydriasis), which may lead to increased intraocular pressure. In narrow-angle glaucoma, the drainage angle of the eye is already compromised, and dilation can further obstruct the drainage of aqueous humor. This can precipitate an acute glaucoma attack, resulting in severe pain and potential vision loss. Therefore, alternatives that do not induce pupil dilation are preferred in these patients.
Sentence with acute?
That is an acute angle. An obtuse angle is not acute.
