Primary Angle Closure Disease Spectrum (PACS / PAC / PACG)
ISGEO consensus continuum of primary angle closure disease (Foster 2002, EAGLE 2016). Distinguishes occludable angles (PACS) from those with PAS or elevated IOP (PAC) and from established glaucomatous neuropathy (PACG). Critical for laser-iridotomy and lens-extraction decisions.
