  Fig. 1 Figures (A) presented preoperative and postoperative photographs of cases (case 1, A-1 and A-2; case 2, A-3 and A-4). Solid arrows indicate preoperative laser peripheral iridotomies (LPIs), and open arrows indicate closed LPIs. Figures (B) showed intraocular Siepser slipknot technique. Figures (C) presented schema of (B). Numbering is consistent with (B).
