A condition in which the iris sticks to another part of the eye.
Adhesion between the iris and the cornea (anterior synechia) or between the iris and the lens (posterior synechia), developing as a result of trauma or surgery to the eye or as a complication of cataract or glaucoma. Treatment depends on the cause; untreated it can lead to blindness.
