Abstract
A possible reason for secondary glaucoma may be a non-physiological accumulation of proteins or blood in the aqueous humor. A positive Tyndall phenomenon shows an increase in the proteins of the aqueous humor, although a negative Tyndall does not exclude this. Disruption of blood vessel membrane barriers in the retina and uvea leads to an increase in low MW proteins in the aqueous humor. Contrary to the current literature, overtaxing of flow mechanisms by these additional proteins can cause so-called protein glaucoma.
