Some consequences of ciliary process swelling in the rabbit and in the human.
Year: 1976
Type: article
Abstract: Experimental and clinical observations have been evaluated in an attempt to gain further information about the effect of ciliary process enlargement on the angle of the anterior chamber. Swelling of the ciliary processes produced by the topical instillation of prostaglandin E2 into the eyes of rabbits has been described and compared to similar changes in a patient with ciliary block glaucoma. There seems little question but that most of what is manifest in the anterior chamber is but a reflection of very significant pathologic change in the posterior chamber.
