    Deep posterior sclerotomy effectively treats uveal effusion syndrome unresponsive to medication. This surgical approach for uveal effusion syndrome led to improved visual acuity and retinal reattachment in a case study.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Retinal Diseases
    • Surgical Innovation

    Background:

    • Uveal effusion syndrome (UES) is a rare condition characterized by choroidal and retinal detachment.
    • Diagnosis involves comprehensive ophthalmic imaging and exclusion of other causes.
    • Conservative management includes carbonic anhydrase inhibitors and prostaglandin analogues.

    Observation:

    • A 73-year-old patient presented with unilateral decreased visual acuity, choroidal ablation, and retinal detachment.
    • Initial conservative treatment for suspected uveal effusion syndrome was ineffective.
    • Histological examination of scleral tissue was negative for glycosaminoglycans, indicating Type 3 UES.

    Findings:

    • Deep posterior sclerotomy was performed, leading to reattachment of the choroid and retina.

  • Visual acuity improved from 0.05 to 0.3 post-surgery.
  • Recurrence after cataract surgery resolved spontaneously, with final visual acuity of 0.6.

    • Implications:

    • Deep posterior sclerotomy is a viable surgical option for refractory uveal effusion syndrome.
    • This case highlights the potential for spontaneous resolution even after recurrence.
    • Further research into the pathogenesis and optimal management of Type 3 UES is warranted.
