چکیده
CASE REPORT A 61-year-old pseudophakic male with recurrent blurred vision episodes associated with uveitis, hyphema, glaucoma and vitreous hemorrhage. Iris transillumination defects and apposition of the optic and iris were found. The patient was diagnosed with Uveitis-Glaucoma-Hyphema (UGH) Syndrome. DISCUSSION Mechanical irritation of the iris is a consequence of intraocular lens malposition and causes UGH Syndrome. Occasionally it is associated with vitreous hemorrhage. Lens malposition is detected by optical coherence tomography and/or ultrasound biomicroscopy.

متن کاملSulcus placement of single-piece acrylic intraocular lenses.
Single-piece acrylic (SPA) intraocular lenses (IOLs) have proven to be excellent posterior chamber IOLs (PC IOLs) for placement in the lens capsular bag. However, surgical complications such as posterior capsule tear or rupture may preclude placement of an IOL in the capsular bag. When capsular bag fixation is not possible, placement of a SPA IOL in the ciliary sulcus is problematic. This raise...
