Phacoanaphylactic uveitis

A rare ophthalmic disorder characterized by a zonal granulomatous inflammatory reaction centered around the lens secondary to its traumatic rupture. Signs and symptoms include photophobia, ocular irritation or pain, blurred vision, redness, mutton-fat keratic precipitates, posterior synechiae, and sometimes hypopyon. Intraocular pressure may be elevated due to blockage of the trabecular meshwork by inflammatory cells or lens material.
