| Resumen: |
Introduction and Objective: The Berger’s space (BS) is a space located between the posterior capsule of the lens and the anterior hyaloid of the vitreous, structures that adhere in a circular manner by means of the Wieger ligament, for which the outer limit is defined by Egger´s line. The aim of this article is to perform a review of the BS, as well as to present three cases in which this BS could be demonstrated by optical coherence tomography (OCT). Material and Method: A total of 90 patients from a general ophthalmology clinic were studied, on whom an anterior pole OCT was performed (Cirrus Lumera 700 Carl Zeiss Medicte, Dublin, California, United States). All patients were included consecutively, with an analysis being performed on the cornea, anterior chamber, iris, lens, and anterior vitreous, but excluding those in which the test could not be performed. Results: The posterior lens capsule, the anterior hyaloid, and the BS between both structures were observed in three patients. This is the first time in the current literature that three cases have been described, together with their characteristics (one phakic –case 1- and two pseudophakic, one of them vitreous destructuring –case 2- and the other with opacification of the posterior capsule of the lens –case 3-), using this previous pole OCT technique. Conclusions: Knowledge of the BS is essential to understand the vitreo-lenticular junction and any complications in some cataract surgeries, as well as to also understand the pathological origin of pigment dispersion syndrome. |
