| A
contusion injury of the globe may result in a secondary glaucoma in which
the iris is recessed. This
glaucoma may occur years following a blunt injury to the eye with
contusion. Histopathologically,
this entity is characterized by recession of the iris with a tear
occurring at the face of the ciliary body (#21982) (#21984).
The anterior chamber angle is thus recessed posteriorly. The trabecular meshwork may appear normal initially and may
later show mild signs of sclerosis.
