Safe cataract extraction with underlying hypotonous cilio-choroidal detachment following trabeculectomy surgery
The authors of this study (including the reviewer of this article) describe a surgical technique for phacoemulsification in the presence of shallow choroidal detachment owing to hypotony following trabeculectomy. In their case series, four eyes of four patients with advanced...Intraocular lens choice in patients who have undergone previous corneal refractive surgery
