Fig. 3. Neovascularization glaucoma. Rubeosis iridis tends to bleed and lead to hyphema; the condition has incorrectly been called hemorrhagic glaucoma. The hemorrhage is not responsible for the glaucoma, but the rubeosis iridis and peripheral anterior synechias (arrow) are. Note the lacy vacuolization of the iris pigment epithelium. (H&E, × 75) |
