[Anterior segment fluorescein angiography and IOL implantation].
Fluorescein leakage into the anterior chamber (AC) and from the iris were found early after extracapsular cataract extraction (8 eyes) and IOL implantation (29 eyes). The leakage into AC and from the iris were apparently comparable after ECCE, whereas the former was stronger after anterior or posterior chamber IOL implantation, and no leakage was discernible where the iris and the loops of AC-IOL were in contact. Fluorescein leakage into the AC and from the iris indicated overall traumatic damage to the blood-aqueous barrier.
