IOP control without any medication and visual improvement were achieved postoperatively in all cases. Anterior chamber parameters changes in the preoperative and early postoperative period were imaged with the Pentacam Scheimpflug camera and increase in anterior chamber volume (ACD), anterior chamber depth (ACD), and anterior chamber angle (ACA) was detected in all cases.
