Pseudophakic choroidal detachment with cyclodialysis cyst

Two cases of spontaneous pseudophakic ciliochoroidal detachment, associated with extracapsular cataract extraction, posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation with intact posterior capsules, and small cyclodialysis clefts are documented. In both patients, the choroidal detachments occurred in a delayed fashion following uncomplicated cataract surgery and both presented with characteristic ocular hypotony. Although one patient required surgical management, both patients regained excellent vision after closure of the clefts and resolution of the ciliochoroidal detachments.
