    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Surgical Complications

    Background:

    • Laser iridectomy is a common procedure for glaucoma treatment.
    • Neovascularization is a known risk factor for bleeding complications after ocular procedures.

    Observation:

    • A 77-year-old female patient developed spontaneous hyphema two days post-laser iridectomy.
    • The patient had no pre-existing neovascularization.

    Findings:

    • Bleeding originated from the iridectomy site.
    • This represents a novel complication of laser iridectomy.

    Implications:

    • Highlights a previously undocumented risk associated with laser iridectomy.
    • May necessitate re-evaluation of post-operative monitoring protocols for this procedure.
