Abstract

The angle of the anterior chamber normally provides the main outflow system for aqueous humor. In most of the glaucomas, it is here that aqueous outflow is obstructed. Gonioscopy is our clinical means for looking into the angle and identifying the cause of obstruction in many cases. This chapter offers details regarding the examination of the drainage angle while maintaining much of the historical perspective from the original writings of Dr. W. Morton Grant.
