INTRAOCULAR SARCOMA 189 periphery of the anterior chamber, where it simulates cHnically an iridodialysis (Fig. 95). The interference which it causes in its early stages with the secreting function of the ciliary body may give rise to decrease in the intraocular tension. Later owing to the iris becoming pushed forward, lateral displacement of the lens, or invasion of the ligamentum pectinatum, the exit of the intraocular fluid becomes obstructed, and glaucoma ensues.

Later owing to the iris becoming pushed forward, lateral displacement of the lens, or invasion of the ligamentum pectinatum, the exit of the intraocular fluid becomes obstructed, and glaucoma ensues. A new growth of the ciliary body which spreads forward through the base of the iris extends into the anterior chamber, and may eventually fill it. Enlargement of the growth directly inward raises and ruptures the elastic. Fig. 96.—Lateral half of an eyeball containing a melanotic sarcoma of the ciliary body. There is a small extraocular nodtile over the seat of one of the anterior perforating vessels, a short distance from the sclero-corneal margin. Specimen in the R. Lond. Ophth. Hosp. Museum, lamina, later pressing on the side of the lens, distorting it in shape and displacing it laterally. An invasion of the lens substance by a sarcomatous growth through a rupture in its capsule has been described. From extension backward of the growth the choroid becomes implicated, and in the later stages of the affection.
