To observe and document the daily changes in the morphology of Elschnig pearls. ⋯ Significant changes in the morphology of Elschnig pearls were observed within time intervals of only 24 hours.

These findings may contribute to a better understanding of PCO and have implications on pharmaceutical interventions for PCO.
