. Scheimpflug photography is a very useful method in the diagnosis of exfoliation. It helps to differentiate between tiny subcapsular opacifications and supracapsular appositions. It is a valuable aid in the detection of early stages of exfoliation still unvisible at ordinary slit lamp examination. New phenomenons might be detected in the future like the elevation of a precapsular membrane in one of our patients.
