Glaucoma due to vitreous and retinal detachment surgery

Glaucoma assoiated with vitreous and retinal surgery caused by vitreous and retinal detachment surgery can occur on the first day after surgery, most of which are acute intraocular pressure, and can also occur more than six months after surgery, which is hidden or chronic. IOP increased. The occurrence of glaucoma can be closed-angle, open-angle, or both. With the widespread development of retinal vitreous surgery and the increasing number of complex operations, this type of secondary glaucoma has attracted more and more clinical attention. Because once it occurs, not only the damage to the retinal nerve function is more serious, but also the treatment is often more difficult.
