Description
Summary:Intraocular crystals are seen in chronic uveitis. We present a case of a young man with clinical presentation of refractile crystals in the anterior chamber (AC) with right painful blind eye secondary to uveitic glaucoma, which had earlier retinal detachment surgery. AC tap revealed the crystals in cytology, and further, enucleation of the eyeball showed those crystals in the anterior and posterior segments of the eye. Intraocular crystals at multiple sites were rare occurrence.
