Iridodialysis is the separation of the iris from its root, usually due to trauma or injury. During examination, the pupil appears D-shaped and the detached iris portion near the limbus appears dark. Treatment is usually not required, but if symptoms are marked, the detached iris periphery can be reattached to the root with fine sutures.
