Suprachoroidal hemorrhage (SCH) is a rare but serious complication that may accompany nearly any ocular surgery. In contrast to SCH in adults, the incidence and management of SCH in the pediatric population is poorly defined. Herein, the authors describe their experience managing SCH in patients of a younger age group, characterize this rare complication using multimodal imaging, and review the current literature on the subject. In this retrospective case series, two patients developed intraoperative SCH during cataract extraction once rendered aphakic. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2019;50:454-458.].

This study compares the long-term intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering efficacy of standalone MINIject (iSTAR Medical, Belgium) suprachoroidal implantation and two iStent (Glaukos, CA, USA) trabecular bypass implantation using a systematic review and meta-analysis. Systematic review of standalone implantation of MINIject or iStent inject with at least 24 months of follow up. The mean and standard deviation of IOP and the number of IOP-lowering medications at baseline and at 24 months were extracted.

Article Synopsis
  • Choroidal detachment (CD) during retinal detachment surgery can negatively affect surgical results and vision, necessitating specific management techniques.
  • Cannula-guided choroidal drainage is essential for mitigating pre-existing CDs, especially in complex cases with hemorrhagic detachment.
  • Intraoperative sudden CD can be caused by issues like hypotony or air entry from cannula slippage, which may lead to serious complications like Venous Air Embolism (VAE); prompt action to stop air infusion is critical to prevent life-threatening outcomes.
