Neovascular glaucoma in a patient with X-linked juvenile retinoschisis.
A patient with X-linked juvenile retinoschisis was followed from age 5 years. At age 15 he developed rubeosis iridis and neovascular glaucoma in one eye, resulting in no light perception. A review of the literature revealed this case to be the first reported association of X-linked juvenile retinoschisis and neovascular glaucoma.
