Phacolytic glaucoma [DOID:12570]

A phacogenic glaucoma that is characterized by acute onset of open-angle glaucoma secondary to a leaking mature or hypermature cataract and has_symptom chronic progressive vision loss with acute onset of pain, redness, and blurry vision. Phacolytic glaucomas are caused by direct obstruction of aqueous outflow pathways from leaking cataractous lens proteins.

The disease-gene associations are derived from automatic text mining of the biomedical literature, manually curated database annotations, cancer mutation data, and genome-wide association studies. The confidence of each association is signified by stars, where ★★★★★ is the highest confidence and ★☆☆☆☆ is the lowest.
