This video demonstrates how a simple clinical technique of gonioscopy, when performed appropriately in the clinic, can provide us wealth of information by merely looking at the angle structures. This video describes in detail about commonly used goniolenses and the technique of performing both the direct and the indirect gonioscopy in a clinical setting. Further it demonstrates the method of identification of angle structures and illustrates in detail, the differences in open, occludable and closed angles. It portrays the role of gonioscopy in various other conditions like trauma, post trabeculectomy surgery, pigment dispersion, plateau iris, etc. where it can be of major help in identifying the conditions and initiating their management. At the end of this video, the observer would be able to perform gonioscopy in their setting and also would be able to identify normal and abnormal angle structures for diagnosis of glaucoma and other related conditions.
