  • Title: The use of scleral transillumination to localized the extent of a cyclodialysis cleft.
    Author: Jewelewicz DA, Liebmann JM, Ritch R.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Surg Lasers; 1999; 30(7):571-4. PubMed ID: 10929983.
    Abstract:
    Several techniques have been described to localize and repair cyclodialysis clefts. We describe a technique that may be used to easily and accurately localize a cyclodialysis cleft using scleral transillumination. We have verified the accuracy of this technique using high frequency ultrasound biomicroscopy. The location of the cleft was verified using high frequency ultrasound biomicroscopy. Scleral transillumination may facilitate the accurate location of cyclodialysis and may be a useful adjunct in planning the surgical repair of a cyclodialysis cleft.
