Abstract
In a study of 33 patients of heterochromic cyclitis, some unusual clinical features were observed. In many cases the iris was feltlike, with diffuse atrophy and associated with gelatinous nodules at the pupillary border or over the surface of iris stroma. An association of pseudoexfoliation of the lens capsule with bilateral heterochromic cyclitis was noted. Eyes (21) were subjected to cataract surgery. Hyphema (23.6%) and phacoanaphylactic uveitis (9.5%) were the main postoperative complications.
