Abstract
• A 35-year-old woman developed epithelialization of the anterior chamber with secondary glaucoma, following the use of a transcorneal (McCannel-type) suture to repair a traumatic iridodialysis. Clinical photographs and histologic documentation illustrate the potential for this serious complication from this surgical technique.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
