[The clinical picture of Fuch's heterochromic cyclitis].
The authors are presenting their experience with the diagnosis and treatment of Fuchs' heterochromic cyclitis. They followed-up 13 patients with this disease for 0.5-3 years. Most often the patients were sent to the clinic with the diagnosis of recurrent anterior uveitis not responding to the treatment with corticosteroids and mydriatics. Patients underwent numerous investigations including neurological, internal and rheumatological examinations. Antibodies against EBV, HSV and CMV were detected. The examination of humoral immunity and HLA was done. The authors describe the ophthalmological findings, the course of the disease and the treatment. They did not find any correlation in the laboratory investigations and the course of the disease, the diagnosis is based on the clinical picture. They point out the advantage of the small incision in the extracapsular extraction of cataract in these patients.
