Chaha K, Chinda D, Anongu It

Abstract :

AIM: To highlight the challenges of surgical management of cystic blebs METHODOLOGY: Two eye or cases with huge cystic blebs that underwent surgical reconstructions were retrospectively reviewed along the lines of post-operative bleb morphology, visual acuities and intra-ocular pressures. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in the visual acuities or the IOP�s post-operatively with rather flatter, diffuse with good and functional blebs. CONCLUSION: Careful surgical reconstruction of cystic blebs especially the huge types which are usually unsightly and causative of dellen�s ulcers and other annoying symptoms is advocated as effective and without any significant side effects.
