Title: Fine structure of trabecular meshwork and iris in pigmentary glaucoma. Author: Shimizu T, Hara K, Futa R. Journal: Albrecht Von Graefes Arch Klin Exp Ophthalmol; 1981; 215(3):171-80. PubMed ID: 6908466. Abstract: Trabecular meshwork and iris were studied by light and electron microscopy in a 40-year-old female with pigmentary glaucoma. Elevation of the intraocular pressure was most likely due to closure the intertrabecular space by pigment granules and large cells resembling clump cells, fibrous substances, and hypertrophied endothelial cells of the trabecular sheet, which had phagocytized pigment granules.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
