A Case of Ghost Cell Glaucoma in Phakic Eye

A 52-year-old male was visited our clinic complaining of severe right ocular pain, redness. He had highly elevated intraocular pressure, corneal edema, ciliary injection, cells and flare in the anterior chamber, and vitreous opacities. Then We performed anterior chamber paracentesis and aspiration cytology and this showed typical RBC ghosts with Heinz body so we confirmed the diagnosis of ghost cell glaucoma and treated him with standard medical treatment for glaucoma and anterior chamber irrigation. Since there has been no previous reports of cases like this, we present this case for the first time in Korea.
