Cornea & External Diseases-Iris Bussaca Nodules

Iris Nodules

May be found as:
- Koeppe nodules (inflammatory cell precipitates which lie at the pupillary margin and could be found in non-granulomaous as well as granulomatous uveitis)
- Bussaca nodules (lie on the iris surface) which are pathognomonic for granulomatous uveitis.
When the inflammation is treated, the nodules will resolve.
