Abstract: This study aimed to assess the effect of early lens extraction in patients with primary angle closure glaucoma compared to the standard treatment of laser peripheral iridotomy and anti-glaucoma medications; it is a prospective randomized study. The participants were divided into two groups (45 patients in each group); Group (I) involved subjects underwent lens extraction and group (II) received standard care by YAG laser iridotomy with anti-glaucoma medications. All participants subjected to complete history taking, full ophthalmological examination and Scheimpflug corneal topography to measure AC depth and angle measurements. The study found that early lens extraction has the same effect on control of IOP as the standard care treatment for PACG with more stability of the disease, less need for further interventions and less need for more glaucoma medications. It can be considered as the first line of treatment for African patients with chronic angle closure glaucoma.
