Existen diversos tipos de glaucoma. Los dos tipos principales son el de ángulo abierto y el de ángulo cerrado. Se caracterizan por un aumento de la presión intraocular (PIO), es decir, la presión dentro del ojo. [...] El glaucoma de ángulo abierto, la forma más frecuente de glaucoma, representa al menos el 90 % de todos los casos de glaucoma: Es provocado por la obstrucción lenta de los canales de drenaje, lo cual produce un aumento de la presión ocular. Presenta un ángulo amplio y abierto entre el iris y la córnea. Se desarrolla lentamente y es una afección para toda la vida. Presenta síntomas y provoca daños que no se advierten. 1, record 1, Spanish, - glaucoma%20de%20%C3%A1ngulo%20abierto
