Abstract
A clinical case of successful conservative treatment of choroidal detachment (CD), which developed in the long term after phacoemulsification of age-related cataract (PEC), is presented. The patient underwent PEC of the left eye 3 months ago with implantation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens, while an antiglaucoma operation was performed a year earlier. The patient was canceled the hypotensive regimen and conservative treatment was prescribed – instillation of Midrimax drops (Phenylephrine 5.0% + Tropicamide 0.8%) 2 times a day, Dexamethasone 0.1% – 4 times a day, subconjunctival injections of 2 mg Dexamethasone and 0.1 ml of 0.1% solution of Atropine sulfate. The prescribed conservative treatment made it possible to arrest the CD in the pseudophakic eye, which arose in the late postoperative period, and made it possible to avoid the need for posterior sclerectomy. Key words: choroid detachment, phacoemulsification of age-related cataract, conservative treatment.
