Klasifikasi Glaukoma Berdasarkan Mekanisme Peningkatan Tekanan Intraokuler 
| A. Open-angle glaucoma | B. Angle-closure glaucoma | 
| 1. Pretrabecular membranes: All of these may progress to angle-closure glaucoma due to contraction of the pretrabecular membranes. | 1. Pupillary block (iris bombé) | 
| a. Neovascular glaucoma | a. Primary angle-closure glaucoma | 
| b. Epithelial downgrowth | b. Seclusio pupillae (posterior synechiae) | 
| c. ICE syndrome | c. Intumescent lens | 
| 2. Trabecular abnormalities | d. Anterior lens dislocation | 
| a. Primary open-angle glaucoma | e. Hyphema | 
| b. Congenital glaucoma | 2. Anterior lens displacement | 
| c. Pigmentary glaucoma | a. Ciliary block glaucoma | 
| d. Exfoliation syndrome | b. Central retinal vein occlusion | 
| e. Steroid-induced glaucoma | c. Posterior scleritis | 
| f. Hyphema | d. Following retinal detachment surgery | 
| g. Angle contusion or recession | 3. Angle crowding | 
| h. Iridocyclitis (uveitis) | a. Plateau iris | 
| i. Phacolytic glaucoma | b. Intumescent lens | 
| 3. Posttrabecular abnormalities | c. Mydriasis for fundal examination | 
| a. Raised episcleral venous pressure | 4. Peripheral anterior synechiae | 
| a. Chronic angle closure | |
| b. Secondary to flat anterior chamber | |
