Ocular decompression retinopathy after laser iridotomy in a patient with acute angle closure

A 65-year-old female developed elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) with angle closure in the right eye. The fundus examination revealed vitreo-retinal hemorrhage that had occurred after neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser iridotomy. The retinal hemorrhage resolved spontaneously.

description A 65-year-old female developed elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) with angle closure in the right eye. The fundus examination revealed vitreo-retinal hemorrhage that had occurred after neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser iridotomy. The retinal hemorrhage resolved spontaneously. This is a rare complication that occurs when the IOP is lowered rapidly. Ocular decompression retinopathy (ODR) was identified. We reviewed several cases of ODR that were treated by various interventions. We also discuss the possible pathogenesis, prognosis, and treatment strategy.
