PIGMENT ON ANTERIOR CAPSULE



This patient has pigment cells on her anterior capsule. The pigment cells came from the iris. About 5 years ago she had "uveitis" which is internal inflammation in the eye. When that happens, the iris and the lens become sticky and adhere to one another. After the inflammation resolved, these pigment cells remained. Her case was bilateral, worse in the right eye. The picture on top is the right eye.
