Abstract

Toxic anterior segment syndrome (TASS) is an acute sterile inflammation of the anterior segment which may occur after surgery. This case presents endothelial cell density (ECD) loss due to months of TASS caused by intraocular migration of ocular ointment. The chronicity of this case and the clinical consequences are rare in the literature.
