Abstract
To report the use of slit-lamp-adapted optical coherence tomography (SL-OCT) in imaging 2 patients with Descemet membrane detachment following anterior chamber reformation after trabeculectomy. Two patients, with leaking and overfiltering blebs, respectively, developed Descemet detachments after reformation of flat anterior chambers with viscoelastics. Slit-lamp biomicroscopy and SL-OCT were used to diagnose and monitor posttreatment outcome. Biomicroscopic evaluation and SL-OCT imaging of the cornea revealed a Descemet detachment in both cases. One patient underwent intracameral air injection. Follow-up SL-OCT imaging revealed reattachment of Descemet membrane and reduced corneal thickness. SL-OCT can be used to document and follow postsurgical detachment of Descemet membrane.
