ABSTRACT

PURPOSE:

To report a case of hypotony maculopathy caused by traumatic cyclodialysis and treated by vitrectomy combined with gas tamponade and cryotherapy.

METHODS:

A 35-year-old man with hypotony maculopathy caused by traumatic cyclodialysis was unsuccessfully treated with conservative medical therapy, laser photocoagulation, and direct cyclopexy. The intraocular pressure (IOP) was 2 mm Hg and the vision was counting finger with chorioretinal folds. Vitrectomy combined with gas tamponade and cryotherapy was performed without lens surgery 5 months after trauma.

RESULTS:

After vitrectomy, fundus photograph and optical coherence tomography revealed complete loss of preoperative chorioretinal folds. The visual acuity improved to 0.3 and IOP was maintained within a normal range during the 24 month follow-up.

CONCLUSIONS:

This case shows that vitrectomy combined with gas tamponade and cryotherapy is effective for the treatment of traumatic cyclodialysis with persistent hypotony, probably without lens surgery.
