AI Article Synopsis
- A 36-year-old woman with a history of eye surgery experienced a traumatic bleb leak and a dislocated intraocular lens after minor trauma.
- She underwent a combined minimally invasive conjunctival surgery (MICS) and lens repositioning, leading to a rapid improvement in her vision and resolution of complications.
- The case highlights MICS as an effective treatment option for managing traumatic bleb leaks, especially when other eye surgeries are involved.
Article Abstract
Purpose: We report a case of traumatic bleb leak following trabeculectomy and dislocated intraocular lens treated with combined minimally invasive conjunctival surgery (MICS) and lens repositioning.
Observations: A 36-year-old woman with a history of phacomorphic glaucoma secondary to microspherophakia and status post trabeculectomy underwent combined MICS and lens repositioning for a late-onset bleb leak and dislocated intraocular lens following minor trauma. The patient's vision rapidly improved postoperatively with prompt resolution of hypotony.
Conclusion/importance: MICS is an effective treatment for traumatic bleb leak following trabeculectomy that can be a particularly useful approach for patients undergoing concurrent ophthalmic surgery.
