  2. Slit lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slit_lamp

    A sign that may be seen in slit lamp examination is a "flare", which is when the slit-lamp beam is visible in the anterior chamber. This occurs when there is breakdown of the blood-aqueous barrier with resultant exudation of protein.

  3. Toxic anterior segment syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxic_anterior_segment...

    Common findings on anterior segment slit lamp examination include increased cell and flare with associated fibrin and possible hypopyon formation. Patients may show signs of diffuse corneal edema , and they may also show signs of iris atrophy with pupillary abnormalities and eventual increased intraocular pressure.

  4. Uveitis–glaucoma–hyphema syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uveitis–glaucoma...

    Slit-lamp examination may reveal hyphaema, aqueous cells and flare, iris neovascularization, mispositioned IOL, iris-lens contact, iris transillumination defects etc. [2] Variations [ edit ]

  5. Uveitic glaucoma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uveitic_glaucoma

    Another important clinical measurement of ocular inflammation is flare. Flare is the leakage of various proteins (such as fibrin and cytokines) into the ocular anterior chamber, as a manifestation of inflammation. It will usually have a "milky" appearance. Flare can also be observed via slit lamp examination. [20]

  6. Posner–Schlossman syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posner–Schlossman_syndrome

    On slit-lamp examination, conjunctival injections, epithelial corneal edema, [3] small to medium-sized fine keratitic precipitates, aqueous cells and flare may also be noted. [4] Blurring of vision, eye pain and discomfort are the main symptoms. [4] Colored halos may occur due to elevated IOP. [5]

  7. Phacolytic glaucoma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phacolytic_glaucoma

    The first type of diagnostic procedure referred to as a ‘slit lamp examination’ of phacolytic glaucoma allows for specific identification of microcystic corneal edema and the presence of macrophages, white material (dotted with patches within the inside capsule of the lens) and intense flare and iridescent or hyper-refringent particles ...

  9. Kayser–Fleischer ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kayser–Fleischer_ring

    As Kayser–Fleischer rings do not cause any symptoms, it is common for them to be identified during investigations for other medical conditions. In certain situations, they are actively sought; in that case, the early stages may be detected by slit lamp examination before they become visible to the naked eye. [1]
