Indian Journal of Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology (IJCEO) is open access, a peer-reviewed medical journal, published quarterly, online, and in print, by the Innovative Education and Scientific Research Foundation (IESRF) since 2015. To fulfil our aim of rapid dissemination of knowledge, we publish articles ‘Ahead of Print’ on acceptance. In addition, the journal allows free access (Open Access) to its content, which is likely to attract more readers and citations of articles published in IJCEO.

Abstract
Purpose: This observational study aims to examine the ability of an imaging tool in differentiating between anterior chamber angle biometric measurements of closed angle glaucomas and healthy subjects.
Materials and Methods: This was a hospital based cross-sectional observational study. Seventy five subjects were grouped into three groups of 25 subjects each based on appropriate inclusion and exclusion criteria. Using AS-OCT, major outcome variables measured wereanterior chamber depth, lens thickness, lens vault and anterior opening distance 750 (AOD 750). Intraocular pressure and axial length were also noted.
Results: Statistical analysis showed that there was significant difference in IOP(p=0.02), axial length (p=0.0001), lens thickness (p=0.0001) and lens vault among the studied groups.
Conclusion: The study results show that in phacomorphicglaucoma, anterior chamber depth was less and lens vault, axial length & angle opening distance 750 were more as compared to acute primary angle closure glaucoma.
