Iris atrophy and erosion prominent features containing an anterior chamber, iris fixation, iridocapsular lens. Angle recession ciliary-body found in some with chamber lenses. Ciliary-body by haptics was seen posterior Pupillary membranes present eight eyes. Granulomatous reaction to IOL material 13 Usually this localized site lens haptic, consistent good acuity. One eye a been successfully treated for Staphylococcus epidermidis endophthalmitis after capsulotomy, shortly before death.
