To prevent IFIS and its signs, Samuel Masket described pre-medicating at-risk patients with topical atropine sulfate 1% three times a day for two days before surgery, standard mydriatics and intraoperative intracameral epinephrine, attributing success in 19/20 eyes to synergy between the pupillary block provided by atropine and the iris-dilator stimulation of the epinephrine.

Factors associated with intraoperative floppy iris syndrome.
Participants. Risk factors for intraoperative floppy iris syndrome: a retrospective study. Keklikci U, Isen K, Unlu K, Celik Y, Karahan M . Cases were characterized intraoperatively as IFIS and non-IFIS. Among 63 cases, 41 presented complete IFIS and 22 incomplete. This is important because IFIS complicates cataract surgery to varying degrees, potentially leading to iris trauma, posterior capsular tears and vitreous loss. Ugarte M, Leong T, Rassam S, Kon CH . Chang DF, Campbell JR, Colin J, Schweitzer C, Study Surgeon Group. Gupta A, Srinivasan R .
Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed.IFIS was observed in 63/1274 eyes (4.9%, 95% CI: 3.9–6.7%). Risk factors for intraoperative floppy iris syndrome: a meta-analysis.
Intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome and finasteride intake. Chang DF, Campbell JR, Colin J, Schweitzer CStudy Surgeon Group. Chang DF, Braga-Mele R, Mamalis N, Masket S, Miller KM, Nichamin LD Oshika T, Ohashi Y, Inamura M, Ohki K, Okamoto S, Koyama T Haridas A, Syrimi M, Al-Ahmar B, Hingorani M . To evaluate risk factors for intraoperative floppy iris syndrome (IFIS) in patients undergoing phacoemulsification. At the univariate analysis, the associations between IFIS and possible risk factors were evaluated with IFIS was observed in 63/1274 eyes (4.9%, 95% CI: 3.9–6.7%).
Intraoperative floppy iris syndrome (IFIS) is a complication during cataract surgery that was first reported by Chang and Campbell in the year 2005. Ophthalmology.

Dr Sumit (Sam) Garg takes a closer look at the unique intraoperative risks that floppy iris syndrome poses to female patients compared with their male counterparts.
