Secondary open-angle glaucoma (SOAG) is a rare yet consequential complication following implantable collamer lens (ICL), also known as a phakic intraocular lens insertion, particularly in high myopia patients. This case report emphasizes the importance of recognizing SOAG and details the diagnostic complexities, reevaluation procedures, and successful long-term management of a 24-year-old bilateral high myopia (-7.00 D) patient who initially received an erroneous diagnosis of secondary angle-closure glaucoma (SACG) after ICL insertion at an external medical facility. Persistent visual issues prompted the patient to seek a second opinion, leading to a comprehensive reevaluation that eventually unveiled pigment dispersion syndrome (PDS) as the underlying cause, subsequently resulting in SOAG. This case not only highlights the diagnostic challenges but also elucidates the re-evaluation process and effective 5-year management strategies employed to restore the patient's visual health and quality of life.
