  • Title: Lens-induced inflammations.
    Author: Khalil MK, Lorenzetti DW.
    Journal: Can J Ophthalmol; 1986 Apr; 21(3):96-102. PubMed ID: 3518889.
    Abstract:
    The authors report six cases of lens-induced inflammations that help to illustrate the wide variability and clinical overlap of these conditions. Using cytological and histopathological findings, they attempt to clarify the confusion surrounding the terminology used to label these inflammations, and outline the immune factors responsible for them. With the recent upsurge in extracapsular cataract surgery, it is important to consider lens-induced inflammations in the differential diagnosis of any postoperative uveitis or endophthalmitis.
