Answer:

Margo Spencer was diagnosed with closed-angle glaucoma affecting her left eye. She is scheduled to have a/an <u>iridectomy</u> a surgical removal of tissue, performed to treat this condition.

Explanation:

An iridectomy is a surgical procedure to remove part of the iris and restore the drainage of the aqueous humor from the eye. It is used in the treatment of closed-angle glaucoma or iris melanoma. In the iridectomy, part of the iris is removed to relieve glaucoma or prevent the malignant tumor from spreading. Because it is an invasive method, an operating room is required and is performed under general anesthesia. Using a microscope, the surgeon proceeds to make a small incision in the cornea so that a small portion of the iris can then be removed.

Liver disease is the most common reason for higher than normal levels of ALT.
