Glaukomflecken is: (A) Acute uveitis due to glaucoma, (B) Lens opacity due to glaucoma, (C) Retinal detachment due to glaucoma, (D) Corneal opacity due to glaucoma
Answer is B. Acute congestive angle closure may cause small anterior grey-white subcapsular or capsular opacities, glaukomflecken to form within the pupillary area. These represent focal infarcts of the lens epithelium and are almost pathognomonic of prior acute angle-closure glaucoma. Ref: kanski's clinical ophthalmology, 8th edition , page no. 273
