Clinical observation of Descemet's membrane detachment after cataract surgery

Journal Title: Guoji Yanke Zazhi - Year 2018, Vol 18, Issue 11

Abstract

AIM: To investigate the causes and effective diagnosis and treatment of Descemet's membrane detachment in the patients received phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens implantation and extracapsular cataract extraction combined with intraocular lens implantation. <p>METHODS: A retrospective analysis was applied for 2 069 eyes in 2006 patients which had received one of above-mentioned surgeries from January 2015 to December 2017. The treatment and prognosis of 26 patients(26 eyes)who had the complication of Descemet's membrane detachment during or after the surgery were observed. <p>RESULTS:After the appropriate treatment, no corneal endothelial decompensation happened in the 26 patients, and the visual acuity was improved to different extent. UBM confirmed that the Descemet's membrane was reset. <p>CONCLUSION: Early detection and appropriate treatment of Descemet's membrane detachment is important for the visual acuity recovery.
