Answer: Hypopyon
In this case, hypopyon is seen in the anterior
chamber and posterior synaechiae can also be
seen at the pupil margin. Hypopyon can be
defined as layering of white blood cells in the
anterior chamber of the eye following acute,
subacute and chronic inflammatory reactions
involving the aqueous humor and anatomical
structures adjacent to it. It appears as a
white milky layer at the bottom of the anterior
chamber.
