title: Evolving Paradigms in Classification of Primary Angle Closure Glaucoma.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To review the old and existing classification systems for primary angle closure disease.
  
  
  METHODS
  Literature review and new proposed classification system.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Existing classification systems have several shortcomings which cannot be applied in a clinical setting. This can be addressed by a proposed scoring system.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  A scoring system would be most appropriate for any clinical setting as well as for prognosticating primary angle closure disease.
