congenital glaucoma - ophthalmology

buphthalmos in ophthalmology
In congenital glaucoma, the intraocular pressure increases because there is a birth defect in the development of the angle of the eye as a result of poor development of the eye. This means that the aqueous humour cannot flow out normally, so the intraocular pressure increases and leads to optic nerve damage.
