Fig. 5. Traumatic angle recession. A. Normal anterior chamber angle. A line parallel to the visual axis through the trabecular meshwork crosses the tip of the first ciliary process. B. Traumatic angle recession. Iris insertion is moved posteriorly with rotation of the ciliary body. A line parallel to the visual axis through the trabecular meshwork passes internal to the retracted ciliary body processes. (Courtesy of Ralph C. Eagle, Jr.) |
