Intracorneal Hematoma After Ahmed Glaucoma Valve Implant Surgery

Ahmed Al Habash et al. J Glaucoma. 2017 Sep.

Abstract

Intracorneal hematoma or hemorrhagic descemet detachment is a rare phenomenon. It has been previously described after nonpenetrating glaucoma surgeries such as canaloplasty, viscocanalostomy, and deep sclerectomy. In this report, we describe a rare case of intracorneal hematoma as a yet nondocumented complication after Ahmed glaucoma valve implant surgery.
