[Cryocoagulation of a prolapsed iris in hypertensive uveitis].
An ICCE was complicated by iris prolapse. Three years later the eye appeared quiet and intraocular pressure was normal when the patient was admitted for secondary implantation. An uneventful IOL implantation (CILCO MT 4U) was followed by hypertensive uveitis. Local and systemic corticosteroids and antihypertensive treatment were insufficient. Cryocoagulation of the bleb was performed. The inflammation rapidly subsided and intraocular pressure normalized without further therapy.
