摘要
Acute angle-closure glaucoma may be induced, among other causes, by therapy with systemic drugs, such as the anticonvulsant topiramate. This paper reports the case of an young patient with acute myopia and angle-closure glaucoma associated with migraine prevention with topiramate. We make a link with similar cases described in medical journals and in a bibliographic review related to this entity.
