    Summary

    A rare case of recurrent serous retinal detachment after optic nerve surgery suggests a potential fistula between the subarachnoid and subretinal spaces. Surgeons should carefully consider the radial incision depth during optic nerve procedures.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Retinal Surgery
    • Neuro-Ophthalmology

    Background:

    • Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) is a significant cause of vision loss.
    • Radial optic neurotomy is a surgical procedure sometimes used to treat CRVO.
    • Serous retinal detachment (SRD) is a potential complication following ocular surgery.

    Observation:

    • A patient developed SRD after undergoing radial optic neurotomy for CRVO.
    • Initial treatment with vitrectomy and laser coagulation was successful.
    • SRD recurred after gas tamponade reabsorption, despite no identifiable retinal break.

    Findings:

    • The recurrent SRD, without a retinal break, suggests an alternative mechanism.
    • This case highlights the possibility of a fistula forming between the subarachnoid and subretinal spaces.

  • The depth of the radial incision into the optic nerve head may be a critical factor.

    • Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of precise surgical technique in radial optic neurotomy.
    • Further investigation into the potential for optic nerve-related fistulas is warranted.
    • Ophthalmologists should be vigilant for atypical SRD presentations post-neurotomy.
