Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
We describe a postoperative finding discovered before surgery in the second eye of a patient who had intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome (IFIS). Recognizing the risk for IFIS is important to anticipate and manage the syndrome and ensure successful cataract surgery. Obtaining the right information about the past and present intake of alpha-blockers is mandatory. |
