There is nothing special about managing visual development and amblyopia in children with glaucoma. They must be followed by a pediatric ophthalmologist and a cycloplegic refraction performed at least yearly (more frequent if a change is expected based on changes in vision or axial length) and glass...
I agree with Dr. @Nallasamy. I may monitor refraction closely due to the eye growth caused by the high intraocular pressure, but the monitoring of visual acuity will be similar to other patients.
