Potential obstruction of the anterior chamber angle by iris root is a key factor of the pathogenesis of angle-closure glaucoma. Development and adoption of ultrasound biomicroscopy and optical coherence tomography in clinical practice have significantly expanded the capabilities of studying the structures of the anterior eye segment in terms of angle closure risk factors through improving visualization depth and quality of examination, including different variants of iris structure and potential changes of its shape in mydriasis. The article reviews various studies dedicated to the progression of primary angle-closure glaucoma and its dependence on the biometric parameters of the eye and changes in pupil size.
