Iridoschisis

Iridoschisis associated with cataract: a systematic review of case reports

“…Although Schmitt reported a case of iridoschisis in 1922, the term was first proposed in 1945 by Loewenstein et al ( 2 ) Iridoschisis has no defined etiology, and studies have reported that it may represent an age-related idiopathic atrophy of the iris, a consequence of ocular trauma, prolonged use of myotic agents in glaucoma treatment, or sclerosis of the iris vessels. ( 3 ) The age of onset of iridoschisis is usually between 60 and 70 years, which corroborates the initial hypothesis. ( 3 ) Iridoschisis mostly occurs in the lower quadrants; however, it may diffuse in the iris.…”

( 4 ) The posterior layer usually remains intact, with no changes in the sphincter or pupil dilator muscles.…”

“…All parameters were standardized to a decimal scale using the established transformation methods in the literature. ( 1 , 2 , 3 ) Seven articles reported endothelial cell count (ECC). The preoperative ECC measurements in 11 eyes with iridoschisis averaged 2,573±838.65 cells/mm 2 (range: 1910-3,738 cells/mm 2 ).…”

Iridoschisis bilatérale isolé

“…Un glaucome est fréquemment associé, approximativement, il s'agit d'un glaucome par fermeture d'angle dans près de 40% des cas [ 9 , 10 ]. En général, le glaucome par fermeture de l'angle résulte de l'apposition de l'iris périphérique au trabéculum avec formation de synéchies antérieures périphériques et obstruction de l'évacuation de l'humeur aqueuse [ 8 , 11 ].…”
