Management of Cyclodialysis Cleft

Steven Vold MD

Show Description +

In this patient, a long standing cyclodialysis cleft extended approximately 3 clock hours. After making a one-half thickness scleral flap, Steven Vold, MD, incises along the length of the cleft. Sutures secure the uveal tissue to the scleral wall at the level of the scleral spur. Gonioscopy is used to confirm the cleft is closed and the iris is in the proper position.

Looks like a tricky surgery! How does one make sure he's taking the sutures in the proper place? How to avoid peripheral synechiae? Also, any other treatment options?
