We have had a request to add lateralised versions of the above concept but with the preferred term: phacoanaphylactic endophthalmitis.
It is referred to this on Eyewiki https://eyewiki.org/Phacoanaphylactic_Endophthalmitis
Given it is a rare condition it is also referred in Orphanet as phacoanaphylactic uveitis - https://www.orpha.net/consor/cgi-bin/OC_Exp.php?lng=en&Expert=209959
A couple of questions for you:
1. What would be your suggested preferred term for this.
2.. Orphnet also have a synonym for this disease of Lens-induced iridocyclitis but we have this as a distinct concept in SNOMED - 70461003 |Lens-induced iridocyclitis (disorder)| - is this a duplicate concept?
3. Lens-induced uveitis is currently modelled with the cause being 'crystallin' - is this accurate?
4. In terms of the parent for this should it be 14589007 |Phacoanaphylaxis (disorder)| which has a synonym - allergic reaction to lens protein?
Many thanks
Elaine
