Primary Angle-Closure Glaucoma is a form of glaucoma characterized by the physical obstruction of the anterior chamber angle by the peripheral iris, leading to impaired aqueous humor drainage and subsequent elevation of intraocular pressure, without underlying secondary causes such as trauma, neovascularization, or intraocular tumors.
