Anatomy and embryology of anterior chamber angle ppt new
This document discusses the anatomy and embryology of the angle of the anterior chamber. It begins by defining the angle of the anterior chamber as the recess formed between the posterior surface of the cornea and anterior surface of the iris, which is the main pathway for drainage of aqueous humor. It then covers the embryology of eye development from the formation of the optic vesicle and stalk to the optic cup. The document also discusses conditions that affect the angle such as congenital glaucoma and posterior embryotoxon. Assessment techniques for the anterior chamber angle including gonioscopy, torchlight examination, and imaging modalities like UBM and OCT are provided.
