Key Words Fuchs uveitis syndrome; Corneal endothelium; Hammered silver; Case report
Core Tip A 49-year-old man was diagnosed with Fuchs uveitis syndrome (FUS) and a complicated cataract based on typical clinical manifestations. Slit-lamp examination, specular microscopy, in vivo confocal microscopy revealed a hammered silver appearance of the corneal endothelium in the affected eye, a wide-band dark area, as well as irregular corneal endothelial protuberances and dark bodies of various sizes. Subsequently, the patient underwent phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens implantation. Hammered silver appearance of the corneal endothelium in FUS, which is considered a more serious manifestation of endothelial damage, is rare and may be caused by many irregular protrusions in the corneal endothelium.
