Choroidal detachment is a complication following trabeculectomy surgery. Medical treatment, including corticosteroids, effectively resolved detachments in all cases, with ultrasonography aiding diagnosis.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Glaucoma Surgery
  • Ocular Complications

Background:

  • Trabeculectomy is a common glaucoma surgery.
  • Choroidal detachment is a known complication.
  • This study investigates its occurrence after trabeculectomy.

Observation:

  • Eight cases of choroidal detachment post-trabeculectomy were reviewed.
  • Cases occurred days to years after surgery.
  • Symptoms included decreased vision, eye pain, and shallow anterior chamber.

Findings:

  • Medical treatment with corticosteroids led to resolution in all cases within one month.
  • Ultrasonography proved reliable for diagnosis and monitoring resolution.
  • Persistent intraocular pressure issues were noted in two cases.
