ABSTRACT
Since Ernst Fuchs had described the chronic cyclitis as cyclitis in 1892, there have been many reports about the chronic cyclitis with the development of the binocular indirect ophthalmoscope and the Schepens' scleral depressor and gonioscope. The chronic cyclitis comes incidious onset with minimal symptoms of hazy vision and vitreous opacity. The authors experienced a case of chronic cyclitis of the left eye of 33 year old male patient who has been treated with systemic corticosteroid and antihistamines. Here, we briefly report it referring the literature about the chronic cyclitis.

Ophthalmologists now realize the importance of the oculocardiac reflex from ocular manipulation. The occurrence of cardiac disturbances has been recognized since 1908. Several authors have believed the mechanisms of the reflex affecting the pulse rate. the conduction system and myocardial contractibility of the heart. For the purpose of the recognition of this reflex, authors performed ocular compression and muscle traction after atropine injection or retrobulbar anesthesia in 135 persons. The results were noted that the reflex is blocked by intravenous atropine injection or retrobular anesthesia. while not by subconjunctival anesthesia or intramuscular atropine injection.
