This chapter describes the pathophysiology of neovascular glaucoma and presents a differential diagnosis for rubeosis iridis. A detailed description of the clinical presentation and expected exam findings and clinical course of disease are outlined. Special attention is given to neovascular glaucoma as a result of diabetes, as well as central retinal vein occlusion. Treatment strategies are then detailed, including medical treatments with the newest anti-VEGF agents, laser treatments, as well as surgical options with the latest evidence-based recommendations.
