Abstract
- Cyclodialysis with hypotony is defined as a rare disorder that meridional ciliary muscle is disinserted from its attachment at the scleral spur due to trauma or intraocula surgery such as extracapsular cataract extraction with or without intraocular lens implantation, iridectomy, and etc. Its managements include conservative therapy with cycloplegics, and surgical treatment such as argon laser photocoagulation, cyclopexy, and diathermy. The authors diagnosed cyclodialysis cleft by observing clinical features and finding of the cleft in the anterior chamber angle with gonioscopy. The cyclodialysis cleft with hypotony has been treated with argon laser photocoagulation into the cleft area.
