ABSTRACT
PURPOSE: To report a case of central serous chorioretinopathy development after glaucoma filtering surgery and spontaneous resolution in a patient with a history of central serous chorioretinopathy in the contralateral eye. CASE SUMMARY: A 46-year-old male with a history of chronic uveitis in both eyes presented with uncontrolled intraocular pressure (IOP) in his left eye. Initial IOP was 34 mm Hg in his left eye. On preoperative evaluation, central serous chorioretinopathy, which was diagnosed in another clinic 1 month prior, was observed in his right eye. Slightly pale optic disc and retinal nerve fiber layer defects were noted in the left eye. However, macular abnormalities were not observed in the left eye. Trabeculectomy and peripheral iridectomy using mitomycin C were performed in the left eye. The patient was prescribed triamcinolone 8 mg daily for 4 days to reduce the post-surgical inflammation. On postoperative day 4, IOP in the left eye was 7 mm Hg and newly developed central serous chorioretinopathy was noted. On follow-up, IOP was maintained at 7-10 mm Hg and central serous chorioretinopathy disappeared 7 months postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS: When clinicians consider performing an ophthalmological procedure in a patient with a history of central serous chorioretinopathy in the contralateral eye, careful observation of central serous chorioretinopathy development is recommended.
