Intraocular uveal microexplosions ("pops") during contact diode laser transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (cyclodiode) occurred in nearly half of patients, particularly those with higher baseline intraocular pressure (IOP). These "pops" were linked to increased postoperative inflammation and hyphema risk but did not affect overall success rates.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Glaucoma Treatment
  • Surgical Complications

Background:

  • Contact diode laser transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (cyclodiode) is a treatment for glaucoma.
  • Intraocular uveal microexplosions, termed

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the incidence of intraocular uveal microexplosions (

Main Methods:

  • Cyclodiode treatment was performed on 43 patients with uncontrolled glaucoma.
  • Patients were divided into therapeutic (seeing eyes) and palliative (blind eyes) groups.
  • Factors influencing pop occurrence and postoperative outcomes were analyzed.

Main Results:

  • Intraoperative microdisruptions (

Conclusions:

  • Choroidal vaporization is more frequent in patients with elevated baseline intraocular pressure.
  • The occurrence of pops is associated with increased postoperative inflammation and a higher risk of hyphema.
