Abstract
El glaucoma congénito primario (GCP) es una patología poco frecuente. Este tipo de glaucoma se caracteriza por la corta edad al diagnóstico, la mala respuesta al tratamiento médico y el alto requerimiento de cirugías antiglaucomatosas. Una vez alcanzado el control de la presión intraocular, un factor importante que influye en el pronóstico visual final es la aparición de la ambliopía. Es fundamental la evaluación de la agudeza visual, de la refracción y de las posibles causas de ambliopía, como la anisometropía y el estrabismo, puesto que permite completar el tratamiento integral de estos pacientes, crítico en la edad en que se ve afectado su desarrollo por la enfermedad, incrementando su pronóstico visual a largo plazo..

Once the control of intraocular pressure has been reached, an important factor that influences the final visual prognosis is the appearance of amblyopia. It is essential to evaluate visual acuity, refraction and possible causes of amblyopia, such as anisometropia and strabismus, since it allows complete treatment of these patients, critical in the age at which their development is affected by the disease, increasing its long-term visual prognosis...
