ICL and Glaucoma

Hi, is there anyone who has had ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) and then been affected by glaucoma? I’ve not been able to find much information online since ICLs are relatively new and less common compared to other procedures :)

I’m currently waiting for consultations after a recent closed angle attack but would be interested to know what options there will be either privately or through the NHS, and if anyone has had the same experience.

Thanks
