Question:
In older adults (aged 75+) with either closed-angle glaucoma or at risk of closed-angle glaucoma, what is the association between taking antidepressant medication and either worsening or getting closed-angle glaucoma?
Answer:
No relevant systematic reviews, randomised controlled trials, or
cohort/case control studies were found to answer this question.
However, there have been several case studies and literature
reviews suggesting an association between antidepressant use and
closed-angle glaucoma. Therefore, this is a clinically relevant
topic and further research is needed.
