Abstract
PURPOSE. To evaluate the effectiveness of surgical treatment of secondary glaucoma and to present the clinical features of the postoperative period in a patient with Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS).
METHODS. A patient with SWS, choroidal hemangioma and secondary glaucoma was examined and treated (Ahmed valve implantation) at the S.N. Fedorov National Medical Research Center "MNTK "Eye Microsurgery" in Moscow.
RESULTS. Hypotension, a decrease in anterior chamber depth, serous choroidal detachment were observed on the first day after surgery on the left eye. Posterior scleral trepanation and injection of viscoelastic into the anterior chamber was performed. On the next day, IOP normalization and complete choroidal attachment were achieved, but macular detachment of neuroepithelium occurred and was successfully treated with injections of glucocorticosteroids. After one month, the retina and choroid were attached, IOP was 16 mm Hg in the left eye without hypotensive drops, visual acuity was 1.0 in both eyes.
CONCLUSION. Implantation of the Ahmed valve can be used in the treatment of secondary glaucoma in patients with SWS in order to reduce the IOP and minimize the risks of complications.
