Pseudophakic pigmentary glaucoma.

摘要

I commend Detry-Morel et al. on their interesting case on the clinical problem of pigmentary glaucoma in the presence of an intraocular lens (IOL). In this scenario, the surgeon is required to decide between IOL exchange (implying that the IOL is at fault) or continuing medical therapy alone. Their case is a good example of the complexity of this decision. Although Detry-Morel et al. thought their patient's transient pigmentary glaucoma was due to the IOL, I would like to suggest why this is unlikely.
