Sumario:PURPOSE: We report a case of traumatic bleb leak following trabeculectomy and dislocated intraocular lens treated with combined minimally invasive conjunctival surgery (MICS) and lens repositioning. OBSERVATIONS: A 36-year-old woman with a history of phacomorphic glaucoma secondary to microspherophakia and status post trabeculectomy underwent combined MICS and lens repositioning for a late-onset bleb leak and dislocated intraocular lens following minor trauma. The patient's vision rapidly improved postoperatively with prompt resolution of hypotony. CONCLUSION/IMPORTANCE: MICS is an effective treatment for traumatic bleb leak following trabeculectomy that can be a particularly useful approach for patients undergoing concurrent ophthalmic surgery.
