    Abstract:
    Uveitis-glaucoma-hyphema syndrome is a rare late complication of anterior segment surgery. We present 2 unusual cases of this syndrome that were mistakenly diagnosed as amaurosis fugax, leading to contraindicated treatment. These cases illustrate the need for ophthalmologic examination during an episode of symptoms.
