What is Van Herick Technique Overview about?
The Van Herick technique involves directing a beam of light at the limbus to assess the depth of the anterior chamber and compare the width of the corneal section with the distance between the iris and the posterior cornea. This allows for classifying the eye angle as open, at risk of closure, or closed. The Shaffer classification is similar but uses greater optical magnification. Both techniques provide a quick and non-invasive assessment of the iridocorneal angle.
