[Morphology of exudate membranes on intraocular lenses].
The morphological demonstration of exudative depositions on the surface of lens implants can be used as foundation for the understanding of the reactive processes that take place in human eyes in the years following cataract surgery with lens implantation. Clinical cases are used to demonstrate the practically unknown pathology of the different forms of reactive protein membranes together with the typical cellular reactions and the important differences in its fixation to the plastic surfaces. The reactive membrane on silicone lens implants is irregular. Deposition of fibrin, the reactive growth of fibroblasts on lens implants as an early stage of scarring, and the formation of hyaline bodies of different origin on lens implants are also demonstrated.
