Thisis constituted not so much from the presenting membrane,which in all probability forms what is technically known asleukoma adherens, but more from the resulting lymphexudate which forms between the iris and the adjacentcorneal tissue. With recovery of the incision, atrophy ofthe included iris occurs, it being replaced by scar-tissueelements. Changes in and about Descemets membrane, to which Ihave already referred in the heahng process of uncompli-cated corneal wounds, play some part in this condition. Anexudate of long spindle cells, with rod-shaped nuclei, replaceDescemets membrane, and, although not directly adjacentto the site of perforation, these modified endothelial cellsmay fill the angle between th
