  • Title: Hypotonus cyclodialysis cleft following suture fixation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens.
    Author: Small EA, Solomon JM, Prince AM.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Surg; 1994 Feb; 25(2):107-9. PubMed ID: 8183506.
    Abstract:
    A 63-year-old man developed hypotony due to a cyclodialysis cleft after suture fixation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens. Since medical management and argon laser photocoagulation were unsuccessful, a direct cyclopexy was performed. The intraocular pressure returned to normal postoperatively, and gonioscopy confirmed closure of the cleft. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of cyclodialysis complicating ciliary sulcus fixation of a posterior chamber lens.
