[Persistent iridoplegia and filamentary keratitis complications following cataract extraction (author's transl)].
In a series of 3,222 cataract operations where enzymatic zonulolysis with Alphachymotrypsin was employed, the authors describe two complications which are thought to be due to the effects of the enzyme. They are the persistent iridoplegia in 18 cases (0.05) and the filamentary keratitis in 34 patients (1.05%). The clinical picture of an acute enzymatic intraocular pressure increase and the appearance of a persistent iridoplegia are discussed. Furthermore, these complications are brought together in tables and associated with other which are also thought to be caused by Chymotrypsin.
