Prognostic Factor Analysis of Intraocular Pressure with Neovascular Glaucoma

Table 1

Cause-specific NVG patient backgrounds. NVG patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) were younger and had a higher pre-treatment PRP ratio. NVG patients with retinal vein occlusion (RVO) had a higher incidence of angle closure glaucoma and higher IOP than other groups. Hyphema occurred more frequently in NVG patients with ocular ischemic syndrome (OIS).
