AIM AND OBJECTIVE TO ANALYZE POSSIBLE CAUSES OF DESCEMET’S MEMBRANE DETACHMENT (DMD, EVALUATE THE EFFICACY OF INTRACAMERAL AIR INJECTION IN ITS MANAGEMENT AND TO EVALUATE THE OUTCOME OF PATIENTS AFTER SUCCESSFUL MANAGEMENT
METHODS AFTER ETHICAL COMMITTEE APPROVAL, CLINICAL DATA OF 30 EYES OF 30 PATIENTS DURING THE PERIOD JULY 2014 TO JULY 2016, WHO DEVELOPED DMD AFTER CATARACT SURGERY WERE NOTED.
RESULTS PATIENTS WERE WITHIN AGE GROUP 50 TO 75 YEARS WITH 16 MALE AND 14 FEMALE PATIENTS. MAJORITY OF THE PATIENTS HAD SEVERE CORNEAL EDEMA(75%). 8% HAD MILD AND 17% HAD MODERATE CORNEAL EDEMA. DMD AS NOTED FROM ASOCT WAS, RANGE 10% TO 95%, MEAN 46.20, SD 24.065. ONLY AIR WAS SUFFICIENT TO RE-ATTACH DMD RANGED FROM 10% TO 55%, MEAN 36.50 AND SD 14.815.
CONCLUSION INTRACAMERAL INJECTION OF AIR IS DEMONSTRATED AS SAFE AND EFFICACIOUS OPTION FOR THE REPAIR OF DESCEMET’S MEMBRANE DETACHMENT.
