purpose: to analyze the results of scanning slit topography (orbscan ii, bausch & lomb) in both eyes of patients with unilateral fuchs’ heterochromic iridocyclitis methods: an intra-subject non-interventional case-control study was conducted on patients with unilateral fuchs’ heterochromic iridocyclitis (fhi). none of the patients had history of ocular surgery. corneal topographic parameters ob...

Cataract formation is an especially common complication resulting from uveitis. It is rare in posterior uveitis, but occurs in up to 50% of patients with anterior and intermediate uveitis (21), and in nearly 80% of patients with Fuchs heterochromic iridocyclitis (FHC). Duration and intensity of inflammation, and treatment, e.g. corticosteroids and previous vitrectomy, are critical determinants ...

INTRODUCTION Fuch's heterochromic iridocyclitis (FHI) is often complicated by cataract formation. OBJECTIVE To assess the results of small-incision cataract surgery (SICS) in FHI and to study the effect of preoperative factors on postoperative vision. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty-three eyes of 59 patients with Fuchs heterochromic iridocyclitis who had SICS with in-the-bag implantation of int...

Autoimmunity directed against retinal or choroidal antigens has been suggested to play a role in the chorioretinal lesions observed in patients with Fuchs' heterochromic cyclitis. This hypothesis was addressed and patients with Fuchs' heterochromic cyclitis were tested for cellular immunity (migration inhibitory factor assay) against human retinal S-antigen. A significantly higher percentage of...

purpose : to investigate long-term visual outcome and complications after cataract extraction and intraocular lens (iol) implantation in fuchs’ heterochromic iridocyclitis (fhi) methods : in this retrospective study in a private eye clinic in tehran, 25 eyes of 24 patients with fhi who underwent cataract extraction and iol implantation were evaluated based on their visual outcome and intraopera...
