The iridocorneal angle, often referred to as the iridocorneal angle or anterior chamber angle, is the anatomical space located at the junction between the iris and the cornea. This critical area plays a vital role in the health and function of the eye, primarily in regulating intraocular pressure.
Within the iridocorneal angle, a meshwork-like structure called the trabecular meshwork is situated. This meshwork acts
The patency, or openness, of the iridocorneal angle is crucial for maintaining a normal intraocular pressure.
Ophthalmologists assess the iridocorneal angle using gonioscopy, a technique that involves using a special lens to
