ABSTRACT
Objective:
Describe the behavior of ocular hypertension associated to rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
Methods:
An observational retrospective longitudinal descriptive study was conducted of 7 eyes of 7 patients attending the Vitreous-Retina Service at Ramón Pando Ferrer Cuban Institute of Ophthalmology from May 2016 to December 2019. The variables considered were age, sex, ocular pathological antecedents, time of evolution of vision reduction, ocular tension, type of retinal tear, retinal surgery performed and ocular hypertension treatment.
Results:
A predominance was found of the male sex, with a mean age of 27.2 years. Most of the patients had retinal tear in the upper nasal quadrant, and all in the extreme periphery. In all cases, intraocular pressure was above 30 mmHg before surgery. All patients were indicated topical hypotensive treatment and underwent conventional surgery. With different intraocular pressure fluctuations after surgery, all patients normalized their ocular tension and retained the retina applied.
Conclusions:
Correct diagnosis of this syndrome may be difficult to achieve, since the signs of one condition may mask those of another. Identification may be easier if the ophthalmologist bears in mind that these diseases may occur together. An accurate diagnosis may thus be made and an effective treatment indicated which will prevent visual disability due to this cause.
