Neovascular glaucoma (NVG), which is refractory to both medical management and
surgical intervention, is a disastrous ocular disease for it always ends up with
intolerable pain and extinguishing patients' residual visual function. Since
insufficient acknowledge of the pathophysiological and molecular mechanisms of
NVG, it has been laying a challenging dilemma of managing NVG in clinical
practice for a long time. Along with the progression on some new agents and
surgical options targeting certain possible roles in the NVG process, there seems
having been some new sights but still much unknown and to be revealed. This
review discusses the underlying etiologic diseases of NVG, molecular findings and
characteristics of its pathogenic process, as well as the management of NVG in
detail. In addition, here represents some of our hypothesis regarding the
interesting findings about NVG in clinical practice, aiming to provide some new
enlightenment for future research.
