retrodescemetic precipitates

To be honest, most mentions in English are from French authors ... but there is a Korean article ...

Actually, it seems the English world is much less pedantic and calls them just "retro-corneal precipitates" (of very often Mutton-Fat precipitates, although this seems to be only a subset of them).

Something went wrong...
4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "I agree with you that this doesn't seem to be the usual English term - so I actually just used keratic precipitates as this seems to be the usual term in English - your comments were helpful in leading me to this - thanks"
