Noninvasive Closure of a Persistent Cyclodialysis Cleft

Ophthalmology, 1996
A persistent post-traumatic cyclodialysis cleft can result in substantial visual loss due to subchoroidal effusion and macular folds with hypotony. A method of closure is needed.After other methods had been tried, the authors used transscleral YAG laser cyclophotocoagulation in three consecutive patients with 20 applications in two rows of ten ...

Cyclodialysis Cleft Following a Scleral Tunnel Incision

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1994
ABSTRACT We report a case of ocular hypotony secondary to a cyclodialysis cleft that developed following a phacoemulsification procedure in which a scierai tunnel incision was used. A cyclodialysis cleft should be suspected in cases of persistent postoperative hypotony.

Cyclodialysis Cleft Diagnosed by Conventional Ultrasonography

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2000
Abstract. This case report describes the diagnosis and management of a traumatic cyclodialysis cleft, in the absence of newer investigating modalities like ultrasonic biomicroscopy (UBM). This entity is ffequendy difficult to recognize clinically owing to the extreme hypotony and media haze that these patients usually present with, which makes ...

Treatment of Cyclodialysis Clefts with Argon Laser Photocoagulation

Ophthalmology, 1982
Abstract Three patients with cyclodialysis clefts and hypotony were treated with argon laser photocoagulation. About 100 burns (0.1 sec, 100 u, 500 mw) were delivered to the cleft and surrounding tissue. Each patient experienced a reversal of the hypotony and substantial, long-lasting improvement in visual acuity.

Imaging of Cyclodialysis Cleft by Ultrasound Biomicroscope

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1994
Inquiries to Robert N. Weinreb, M.D., UCSD/0946, 9500 Oilman Dr., La Jolla, CA 92093-0946. Cyclodialysis clefts result from the tearing of the meridional ciliary muscle fibers, thus sepa­ rating the ciliary body from the scierai spur and the underlying sciera. This process may be caused accidentally by trauma, iatrogenically during intraocular surgery,

The Use of Scleral Transillumination to Localize the Extent of a Cyclodialysis Cleft

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1999
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.

Transscleral Repair of Recalcitrant, Inadvertent, Postoperative Cyclodialysis Cleft

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1994
ABSTRACT We present a patient with a cyclodialysis deft in whom, after established medical, laser, and initial surgical interventions had failed to close the cleft, we successfully used ab externo suture placement to appose and close it. Although we present only one case, we believe this procedure, which may be useful in pseudophakic and ...

Management of Traumatic Cyclodialysis Cleft Associated With Ocular Hypotony

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1999
* BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of direct cyclopexy for treatment of traumatic cyclodialysis cleft associated with ocular hypotony. * PATIENTS AND METHODS: Eyes with traumatic cyclodialysis cleft were treated with direct cyclopexy or 1.0% atropine eyedrop.

Cyclodialysis Clefts: Surgical and Traumatic

2010
Cyclodialysis (CDC) describes the separation between the uveal tissue and the sclera that can occur via blunt injury or be inadvertently caused during ocular surgery. This condition was first described by Fuchs in 1900, and based on his observation was even proposed as surgical treatment for glaucoma by Heine in 1905.

[Post-traumatic cyclodialysis clefts].

Revue medicale de Liege
The cyclodialysis cleft is a rare complication (2 %) in the spectrum of blunt trauma presenting ocular hypotony. This is a separation between the ciliary body and the sclera. This results in the formation of a new space between the anterior chamber and a suprachoroidal space, often inducing major ocular hypotony. Treatment requires medical treatment or
