Iridious
Definition:
(a.) Of or pertaining to iridium; -- applied specifically to compounds in which iridium has a low valence.
Example Sentences:
(1) This report describes a young high-myopic patient who developed rubeosis iridis with peripheral retinal neovascularization one year after a circular buckling operation.
(2) The relationship between aqueous protein concentration (APC) and pathological changes in the iridial blood vessels was investigated in 49 eyes of 45 diabetic patients who underwent cataract surgery.
(3) It should also be stressed that intravitreal silicone oil suppresses iridial rubeosis or prevents its development.
