PART 3 PEPS ALL Conditions (New 2026/
2027 Update) Questions & Answers {Grade
A} 100% Correct (Verified Solutions)
CACG: Therapeutics - Correct answer Referral to ophthalmologist (general or
glaucoma specialist) for YAG PI or laser iridoplasty
Ocular hypotensive agents
CACG: RTC - Correct answer After stabilization in weeks/months per OMD, re evaluate
q6 weeks to 3 months
CACG Explanation to patient - Correct answer Chronic angle closure glaucoma is when
the structural drainage system of the eye repeatedly closes and opens up. When it
closes the pressure inside the eye rises and can cause damage to the eye. Multiple
attacks like this is called chronic angle closure glaucoma.
Angle Recession Glaucoma: Ancillary Tests - Correct answer Gonio
,OCT RNFL
HVF
Pachymetry to measure central corneal thickness/IOP correction
Angle Recession Glaucoma: Plan - Correct answer Therapeutics:
Ocular hypotensive agents
Angle Recession Glaucoma: RTC - Correct answer RTC: Initially q3 months until
incidence of delayed OAG is ruled out. Then annually.
Angle Recession glaucoma patient education explanation - Correct answer Youu have
a condition called angle recession, which often happens after a blunt injury to the eye.
This injury can damage the drainage system of your eye. As a result, your eye pressure
might increase, which could lead to a type of glaucoma in the future called POAG.
,Posner Schlossman Ancillary Tests - Correct answer Gonio (NO SYNECHIAE, open
angle)
HVF
OCT RNFL
Pachymetry to measure central corneal thickness/IOP correction
Posner Schlossman: Therapeutics - Correct answer Prednisolone acetate 1% qid
and/or ketorolac 0.5% qid
+ antiglaucoma med (beta blocker, alpha agonist or CAI to control IOP)
Posner Schlossman: RTC - Correct answer Followed every 2 days to measure IOP.
Then q 3-6 months once stable.
Posner Schlossman pt ed - Correct answer The pressure inside your eye suddenly
increases due to inflammation of the drainage system of your eye, but the cause is
, unknown. The increased pressure can lead to eye discomfort, blurred vision, and in
some cases, headaches.
Pigment dispersion syndrome (PDS): ancillary tests - Correct answer Gonio - to see if
pigment disposition anterior to schwalbes line/within the trab mesh
HVF
OCT RNFL
Pachymetry to measure central corneal thickness/IOP correction
PDS: therapeutics - Correct answer - YAG PI referral
- Prescribe ocular hypotensives
How does RTC differ between PDS and pigmentary glaucoma? - Correct answer
Pigment dispersion: monitor annually for signs of pigmentary glaucoma
