Pigment deposition on the central aspect of the posterior lens capsule in pigmentary dispersion.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a case of an increasing pigmentary plaque on the posterior surface of the lens during follow-up of a case of pigment dispersion syndrome and suggest that this is a new sign of pigment dispersion.

Pigment dispersion syndrome associated with intraocular lens implantation: a new surgical technique
AIMS We report the case of a myopic patient who, after intraocular lens transplant in the posterior chamber, suffered elevated intraocular pressure due to pigment dispersion, with recurrent episodes of blurred vision. The patient was treated with a new surgical technique that can avoid potential iridolenticular contact. METHODS Complete ophthalmologic examination and optical coherence tomogra...
متن کاملHistoanatomical study of the lens and ciliary body in ostrich eye
In the present study, the lenses and ciliary bodies of 20 ostrich eyes were studied macroscopically and microscopically. The histological slides were studied after staining by hematoxylin and eosin, Verhoeff, Van Gieson, and periodic acid-Schiff (PAS). Posterior surface of lens was more convex than its anterior surface. The average lens diameter and thickness were respectively measured as 1.43 ...
متن کاملPigment dispersion syndrome and pigmentary glaucoma.
The pigment dispersion syndrome is a relatively uncommon condition, occurring as a result of pigment loss from the posterior-pigmented epithelium of the iris, with subsequent redeposition of the pigment throughout the anterior chamber. Obstruction of the trabecular meshwork occasionally leads to pigmentary glaucoma, with increased intraocular pressure, optic nerve head changes, and visual field...
متن کاملUltrasound biomicroscopy in asymmetric pigment dispersion syndrome and pigmentary glaucoma.
OBJECTIVE To identify differences in anterior chamber anatomy among patients with asymmetric pigment dispersion syndrome and no other discernible cause for the asymmetry. METHODS Ultrasound biomicroscopy and A-scan biometry were performed on both eyes of 13 patients with asymmetric pigment dispersion syndrome without a known cause for asymmetric involvement. A radial perpendicular image in th...
متن کاملUltrasonographic Measurement of the Anterior and Posterior Lens Capsules of the Eyes and its Comparison with a Field Study in Normal Rabbit
Objective- To find normal value of thickness of the lens capsules in domesticated rabbits by ultrasonography. Design- experimental in vivo study and clinical trial. Animals- Twelve matured and immature domesticated rabbit. Procedures- The eyes of 12 non anaesthetized domesticated rabbits were sonograophed using a linear 6-12 MHz high frequency transducer. The thickness of anterior and posterior...
