Sažetak
The incidence and seasonal variations of acute primary angle-closure glaucoma
(APACG) was studied. It was based on a retrospective chart review of 121 hospital patients
in Split, Croatia for the fifteen-year period from 1985 through 1999. The average
incidence was 4.1 cases per 100,000 per year in the total population and 7.1 per 100,000
in those aged 30 years and older. APACG affects women almost twice more often than
men. The incidence rate increased with age. No seasonal variations in the occurrence of
APACG and no correlation with the mean duration of light exposure per season were
found.
