Published: October 2023

We report two cases of uveal effusion following oral acetazolamide administration: one case after a standard cataract surgery and a second following a preventive treatment for altitude sickness. The outcome in both cases was favorable. This rare complication requires appropriate management, including ruling out other pathologies. The pathophysiological mechanism is not fully understood.

Importance: In-office suprachoroidal viscopexy (SCVEXY) is a relatively new procedure for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD), but minimal information is available regarding outcomes and safety.

Objective: To report outcomes with in-office SCVEXY for primary acute RRD.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This retrospective case series was conducted at St Michael's Hospital in Toronto, Ontario, Canada from June 2023 to February 2024 among consecutive patients with primary acute RRDs who presented with retinal tears that were reachable with the current in-office SCVEXY technique in the temporal or nasal retina.
