title: [Transmission electron microscopy of the surface of an intraocular lens removed from the eye].
abstract: The authors examined by transmission electron microscopy the surface of an intraocular posterior chamber lens explanted from the eye of a female patient on account of secondary glaucoma. They found a fibrous reaction in particular at the site of contact of the supporting haptic with the sulcus of the ciliary body which was the cause of failure of conservative treatment.
