Consumer:

Intraoperative Floppy Iris Syndrome has been observed during cataract surgery in some patients on or previously treated with antiadrenergic agents. If a patient is undergoing cataract surgery, the ophthalmologist should be prepared for possible modifications of the surgical technique (iris hooks, iris dilator rings). There does not appear to be a benefit in stopping antiadrenergic agents therapy prior to the cataracts surgery.
