Abstract
Iris fluorescein angiography is a valuable technique for clucidating a wide range of eye pathologies, among them developmental anomalies, degenerative disease, retinal vascular occlusions, diabetic microangiopathy, uveitis of various etiologies, glaucoma, tumor, and surgical or accidental trauma. In fact, IFA is more sensitive than biomicroscopy in the evaluation of iris abnormalities. Moreover, it provides indirect but reliable information on the retinal circulation when this cannot be examined directly. Some of the most important clinical applications involve the early detection of iris new vessels, cataract management in diabetic patients, and monitoring of iris tumors. Equipment, procedures, and fluorescein angiographic patterns in normal and disease states are described and extensively illustrated. More widespread use of this valuable technique is encouraged.
