  • Title: Failure of pupillary dilation in early choroidal detachment.
    Author: Mansour AM, Fares B.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Surg; 1985 Jun; 16(6):394-5. PubMed ID: 4022562.
    Abstract:
    Transient miosis presents a challenge in extracapsular cataract extraction and retinal detachment surgery, despite the advent of the small-pupil ophthalmoscope. Mechanisms have been proposed and preventive measures described. We describe a case of transient miosis that led to cancellation of the repair of retinal detachment and was the first sign of early choroidal detachment.
