Successful combined cataract surgery and drainage of a needling-induced chronic ciliochoroidal detachment.

摘要

Needle revision is an accepted method of management for failed or poorly functioning trabeculectomy blebs. We report a case of chronic ciliochoroidal effusion occurring after needle revision of failed trabeculectomy bleb in an only eye with poor vision due to cataract. The effusion failed to resolve with conservative management and required subsequent surgical intervention.
