Plateau iris syndrome indication for endocycloplasty
NEW ORLEANS — Plateau iris syndrome is an indication for improving angle architecture with endocycloplasty, which shrinks the ciliary processes, Ramesh S. Ayyala, MD, told colleagues at Glaucoma Day preceding the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery meeting. “Endocycloplasty has been used primarily as an adjunct with phacoemulsification cataract extraction and may be indicated for plateau iris if ciliary processes are directed anteriorly,” Ayyala said.
