Intraoperative Floppy Iris Syndrome (IFIS): A Summary

Intraoperative Floppy Iris Syndrome (IFIS) is a condition first described by Chang and Campbell in 2005. It is characterized by abnormal iris behaviour during cataract surgery, particularly in patients taking systemic alpha-1 adrenergic antagonists like tamsulosin. Recognizing and managing IFIS is crucial for preventing intraoperative complications and ensuring favourable surgical outcomes.

Abstract

Intraoperative Floppy Iris Syndrome (IFIS) is a condition first described by Chang and Campbell in 2005. It is characterized by abnormal iris behaviour during cataract surgery, particularly in patients taking systemic alpha-1 adrenergic antagonists like tamsulosin. Recognizing and managing IFIS is crucial for preventing intraoperative complications and ensuring favourable surgical outcomes.
