Crypt of Fuchs
 
 
Crypt of Fuchs: The cell-rich superficial layer of iris stroma is focally absent. In contrast to the smooth and matted appearance of encircling anterior border layer, exposed deep stroma in crypt's floor is loosely textured, and relatively paucicellular with myriad interweaving strands and minute crypts. Trabeculae forming part of collarette are seen at right (SEM, X 160).
