Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography Guided Nd:YAG Laser Iridocystotomy in Post Traumatic Iris Cyst
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 30 year old female presented with a large post traumatic iris cyst obstructing the visual axis, with a corneal scar inferiorly. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) was done to identify the areas of corneal attachment and locate the thinnest area of the cyst. Nd:YAG laser iridocystotomy performed subsequently resulted in immediate deflation of the cyst, excellent restoration of visual acuity and no recurrence till 6 months of follow up. AS-OCT guided laser cystotomy has not been reported previously, to the best of our knowledge.

Pigment dispersion syndrome associated with intraocular lens implantation: a new surgical technique
AIMS We report the case of a myopic patient who, after intraocular lens transplant in the posterior chamber, suffered elevated intraocular pressure due to pigment dispersion, with recurrent episodes of blurred vision. The patient was treated with a new surgical technique that can avoid potential iridolenticular contact. METHODS Complete ophthalmologic examination and optical coherence tomogra...
متن کاملChanges in Anterior Segment Morphology of Iris Bombe before and after Laser Peripheral Iridotomy in Patients with Uveitic Secondary Glaucoma
Purpose. To quantify changes in anterior segment (AS) parameters after laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) using AS-optical coherence tomography (OCT) of iris bombe. Method. AS images of eight eyes were captured before and after iris bombe and more than 2 weeks after LPI (post-LPI) using AS-OCT. We compared the following AS parameters: anterior chamber depth (ACD), anterior chamber volume (ACV), i...

CLINICAL CASE A 5 year-old child diagnosed with moderate anisometropic amblyopia secondary to primary cyst of iris pigment epithelium. He was evaluated with ultrasound biomicroscopy (BMU) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) of anterior segment. DISCUSSION The OCT, although with some limitations, is a useful tool to study the anterior segment. It is probably more recommendable than BMU in t...
