Abstract
A 19-year-old girl presented with advanced unilateral chronic angle closure glaucoma and myopia with gross cupping and field loss in a previously hyperopic eye with a marked increase in corneal curvature. This emphasises that a marked myopic shift may be an important sign of glaucoma in a young patient.
