Intravitreal gas injection for hypotony after cataract surgery.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravitreal perfluoropropane gas injection to treat hypotony after cataract surgery. SETTING: The ophthalmology department of a major tertiary medical center. METHODS: After uneventful cataract extraction, 5 patients with hypotony due to iridocyclitis, choroidal detachment, and serous retinal detachment were treated with an intravitreal injection of 1.0 cc of perfluoropropane gas. RESULTS: The hypotony, choroidal detachment, and exudative retinal detachment resolved in all 5 patients, and visual acuity improved. No complications were observed. CONCLUSION: Intravitreal gas injection can be used to treat hypotony after cataract surgery in selected patients.[1]
