Degeneration of iris and ciliary body - what does this mean
Degeneration of the iris and ciliary body occurs when the cells of the iris and ciliary body become damaged due to age-related changes, trauma, or disease. this can lead to vision loss, glaucoma, and other eye problems.
What happens during the disease - degeneration of iris and ciliary body
The degeneration of the iris and ciliary body is caused by a variety of factors, including aging, inflammation, trauma, and certain medical conditions such as glaucoma and uveitis. in these cases, the damage to the tissue is caused by the breakdown of the collagen fibers in the iris and ciliary body, resulting in a decrease in the elasticity of the tissue. this can lead to a decrease in the production of aqueous humor, an increase in intraocular pressure, and a decrease in the ability of the ciliary body to focus light on the retina.
