Modified posterior drainage of post-operative suprachoroidal hemorrhage.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To study the anatomical and functional outcomes of trans-conjunctival 23G or 25G cannula-guided modified posterior passive drainage of post-operative suprachoroidal hemorrhage (SCH).

Methods

A retrospective study was done on 15 eyes in the last nine years. Vitrectomy with perfluorocarbon liquid injection to push SCH from inside along with 23G or 25G cannula-guided passive drainage of SCH was performed by making multiple sutureless posterior sclerotomies at 10-15 mm behind the limbus. Postoperatively, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), and posterior segment findings were compared from pre-operative findings.

Results

Mean age at presentation was 64.93 ± 7.62 years. Complete resolution of SCH with attached retina was achieved in 60%
