Pupillary block after silicone oil implantation in a phakic eye

Pupillary block glaucoma in phakic perfluoropropane gas filled eye.

Pupillary block following posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation in adults.

BACKGROUND Pupillary block rarely occurs after cataract extraction with posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation. METHODS A series of six patients (seven eyes) treated for pupillary block after posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation between 1990 and 2001 is described; in one eye, the attack occurred after phacoemulsification. RESULTS The interval between pupillary block deve...

Outcome after silicone oil removal.

BACKGROUND Combined with vitreoretinal surgery, silicone oil injection has become a standard technique and improves the prognosis of complex retinal detachment. As silicone oil leads to long term complications, removal of silicone oil from the eye is recommended. To evaluate the outcome after silicone oil removal, retinal redetachment, visual acuity, and complications were analysed. METHODS T...

Acute glaucoma following vitrectomy and silicone oil injection.

Three cases are described of acute glaucoma following vitrectomy and silicone oil injection in proliferative vitreous retinopathy. The first case developed silicone-induced pupillary block in a phakic eye. Cases 2 and 3 developed elevated pressure in aphakic eyes with deep anterior chambers. Cases 1 and 3 were treated by laser iridectomy. Case 2 was treated by removal of silicone. The pathogene...

Pseudophacomorphic Glaucoma along with Pupillary Block after Visian™ Implantable Collamer Lens Implantation for High Myopia.

PURPOSE To report a case of bilateral glaucoma related to pseudophacomorphic mechanism in one eye and pupillary block in the other eye after Visian Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL, STAAR Surgical) insertion. METHODS A 44 year-old female with high myopia underwent bilateral ICL implantation of MICL12.6 after sulcus diameter measurements were performed by Pentacam. RESULTS Pseudophacomorphic g...
