[Blood-staining of the cornea].
Clinical signs and morphological evidence suggest a primary endothelial damage by the blood-clot in the anterior chamber, and, may be, by raised intraocular pressure, in blood-staining of the cornea. Corneal oedema develops, hemoglobin penetrate into the oedematous corneal stroma peripheral of the edge of Descemet's membrane (Abb. 1, 3). Multiple hemoglobin deposits without iron positive reaction appear in the corneal stroma (Abb. 2-5). Keratocytes take up these fragments and ferritine is formed in the lysosomes (Abb. 6).
