Abstract
AIM:To analyze the clinical symptoms, treatments and prognosis of the glaucoma secondary to hypermature cataract to offer some references for the diagnosis and the treatment.

METHODS:Thirty four eyes with glaucoma secondary to hypermature cataract in 34 patients were collected from August 2011 to August 2014 in the West China Hospital, Sichuan University. Analyze different treatment methods selected according to different clinical symptoms, and corresponding prognosis.

RESULTS:Thirty four patients were hospitalized in emergency, all the eyes had visual acuity of finger counting or worse, intraocular pressure(IOP)was 35～75mmHg. All patients received comprehensive IOP-lowering therapy before the surgery. Twenty-eight patients underwent phacoemulsification, 6 patients underwent extra-capsular cataract extraction(ECCE)and 19 patients underwent primary or secondary IOL implantation. All the patients experienced pain relief after surgery, 30 of them had well-controlled postoperative IOP. One case underwent Ahmed glaucoma valve implant surgery, 3 cases gave up the treatment. Seventeen cases who had IOL implanted got great visual acuity improvement, the best postoperative visual acuity was 0.7.

CONCLUSION:As long as we have proper and prompt diagnosis and positive control of IOP and inflammation before surgery, precise surgery skills, close observation after surgery and positive anti-inflammation therapy, most of the glaucoma secondary to hypermature cataract get satisfactory outcomes.
