A late complication of primarily pupillary lens implants is episodic blurring of vision. Twenty-nine patients described sudden blurring of vision lasting two to eight hours. Clinical signs of recurrent microscopic hypopyon also clearing within hours are described, as well as angiographic evidence of iris permeability in areas of contact between the lens implant and the anterior iris surface. Treatment is discussed. Age-related factors are suggested.
Twelve professional divers had visual complaints after decompression sickness. Severe accommodative and convergence insufficiency, heretofore unrecognized, was detected and studied. Two rhesus monkeys were subjected to similar hyperbaric conditions and then examined before death for study of their eyes and brains. The animals seemed to have accommodative and convergence insufficiency.
