Anterior segment optical coherence tomography documentation of a case of topiramate induced acute angle closure. Indian Journal of Ophthalmology. 2014 May ; 62 (5): 619-622.http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/155639We present a case report of a 31-year-old female patient who presented to us with a 1 day history of acute bilateral eye pain, blurred vision and headache. She was found to have a myopic shift, raised intraocular pressure (IOP) and shallow anterior chambers in both eyes. She had been commenced on oral topiramate 1 week previously. A number of investigations, including anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) were done and a diagnosis of topiramate induced bilateral acute angle closure (TiAAC) was made. Topiramate was discontinued and she was managed with topical and oral antiglaucoma medications, topical steroids and cyclopegics. Her symptoms subsided dramatically at the next follow-up. The AS-OCT documentation revealed lucidly the improvement in her anterior chamber depth and anterior chamber angle parameters. Her IOP decreased, her myopic shift showed reversal and her AS-OCT fi ndings revealed gross improvement in all the parameters angle opening distance, trabecular iris space area and scleral spur angle. This case report clearly shows with AS OCT documentation the changes which occur in the anterior segment in a case of TiAAC.enAnterior segment optical coherence tomographyangle opening distanceangle recess areamyopic shiftshallow anterior chambertopiramate induced bilateral acuteangle closuretrabecular iris space areaArticle
