Long-term outcome of trans-scleral diode laser cyclophotocoagulation in refractory glaucoma.
BACKGROUND Long-term outcome and complications of diode laser cyclophotocoagulation (DCPC) may be important, since eyes, once treated with DCPC, are less likely to be subjected to other types of interventions in the further follow-up. METHODS Retrospective review of 131 eyes of 127 patients treated from 2000 through 2004. Success was defined as intraocular pressure (IOP) at last visit 6-21 mm...
متن کاملTrans-scleral Diode Laser Cyclophotocoagulation in Children with Refractory Glaucoma. Long-term Outcomes
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of diode laser cyclophotocoagulation in paediatric patients with refractory glaucoma and to assess complications associated with this method. The study included 69 eyes in 53 children with uncontrolled refractory glaucoma who underwent diode laser cyclophotocoagulation (cyclodiode) treatment. The mean age of this group was 6.1 years (range, 0.9...
متن کاملAspergillus fumigatus Endophthalmitis with Necrotizing Scleritis following Pars Plana Vitrectomy
We present a case of Aspergillus fumigatus endophthalmitis complicated by necrotizing scleritis in a 68-year-old man with diet-controlled diabetes, after retinal detachment repair. He was initially treated with systemic steroids for surgically induced necrotizing scleritis following routine pars plana vitrectomy. An additional diagnosis of endophthalmitis was made when the patient developed a h...
متن کاملAutologous fascia lata grafts for scleral repair in eyes with infectious necrotizing scleritis.
Infectious necrotizing scleritis is a rare but devastating disease that often develops after trauma or surgery. A delay in the diagnosis or inappropriate treatment can cause a progression of the infection to scleral thinning and even perforation of the eye, resulting in endophthalmitis and blindness. For cases that do not respond to medical therapy or when the necrosis has advanced to perforati...
متن کاملtrans-scleral diode laser cyclophotocoagulation for management of elevated intraocular pressure after pars-plana vitrectomy
purpose: to evaluate the effect of trans-scleral cyclophotocoagulation (tscpc) in reducing intraocular pressure in eyes with history of pars plana vitrectomy with or without intraocular silicone oil and refractory to medical treatment. methods: medical records of 35 eyes of 35 patients who underwent tscpc for medically uncontrolled glaucoma after pars plana vitrectomy for retinal pathology were...
