Pathological Examination of a Human Eye Containing an Anterior Chamber Acrylic Implant

Professor Peter Choyce: an early pioneer of intraocular lenses and corneal/refractive surgery

“…Peter Choyce, in cooperation with contemporary ocular pathologists, was one of the first to apply clinicopathological correlation techniques to IOLs 20 . If such correlative work had been carried out on a consistent basis over the decades following these original examinations, it is likely that improvement of IOLs would have been accelerated, and some of the complications would have been avoided.…”

Pathology of an Aphakic Eye Containing an Anterior Chamber Implant

“…It is interesting to compare this case, in which the implant had been present for 5j months, with that of Ashton and Choyce (1959), in which the implant had been present for only 6 weeks, and to answer some of the questions they raised. The degree of atrophy in the supporting iris tissue was less than in their case, which somewhat allays the fear they expressed that progressive atrophy might in time result in dislocation or displacement of the implant.…”

“…

ONLY two pathological examinations of human eyes containing acrylic implants have so far been reported (Ashton and Choyce, 1959; Manschotsee Binkhorst, 1959). A third case is here described.

Case Report A man aged 67 years presented with cataract in both eyes.
