HISTOPATHOLOGIC STUDY OF CHANGES OCCURRING IN EYES WITH INTRAOCULAR LENS IMPLANTATION: AUTOPSY EYES, ENUCLEATED EYES AND CORNEAL BUTTONS

Abstract. The clinicopathologic findings in 17 eyes which were surgically enucleated or removed at autopsy as well as the histopathology of 72 corneal buttons removed from eyes with intraocular lenses are described. In four of five autopsy eyes the intraocular lens was well tolerated; however, in all cases, changes related to the pseudophakos were found. In seven of 12 surgically enucleated eyes, postsurgical bacterial or fungal endophthalmitis had developed. On histopathological examination, one eye revealed clinically unsuspected endophthalmitis phacoanaphylactica after extracapsular cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation. In two cases, choroidal melanoma became evident after cataract extraction and insertion of a pseudophakos. In both cases preoperative ultrasonography was limited to A‐scan axial measurements. The 72 corneal buttons were removed from patients with pseudophakic bullous keratopathy; histologically the most striking findings were guttata‐like changes in 50% of the specimens and retro‐corneal membranes in 13.9% of the specimens.
