Abstract
Trabeculotomy is a well-documented procedure for reducing intraocular pressure in primary infantile glaucoma with cloudy corneas. However, the efficacy of the procedure is reduced in glaucoma associated with other ocular disorders. We report a child with lens-corneal adhesions in whom trabeculotomy produced a secondary cataract.
