Marginal ulceration after intracapsular cataract extraction
Abstract
In four cases of marginal corneal ulceration after uncomplicated intracapsular cataract extraction three of the ulcers appeared within three months after the surgery. In all patients the ulcers were located anteriorly to the site of limbal incision and were progressive. Conservative management was successful in three patients, including one after recurrence of the ulcer after surgery, and one patient resisted medical and surgical management.
