Hyphema is the accumulation of red blood cells (RBCs) in the eye’s anterior chamber. Blood must be grossly visible, either on direct inspection or via slit-lamp examination. Blood accumulates from the disruption of the iris or ciliary body vessels, usually due to trauma or underlying medical conditions. This activity describes the pathophysiology, evaluation, and management of hyphema and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in caring for affected patients.
