Abstract
In pseudophakic eyes, isolated total aniridia after nonperforating blunt trauma, without any apparent dehiscence or extension of the cataract incision, has been rarely reported in the literature. 1-5 Here we describe a case of posttraumatic massive hyphema followed by complete aniridia in a patient who had undergone cataract surgery 18 months before. A comprehensive diagnostic assessment, including ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM; ie, 50-MHz single-element mechanical sector scanner) was performed within few days of hyphema reabsorption. To our knowledge, UBM findings of this condition have not been documented previously.
