Hypotonus cyclodialysis cleft following anterior chamber intraocular lens removal.
Inadvertent cyclodialysis cleft formation is a rare complication of intraocular surgery. We report a patient in whom a hypotonus cyclodialysis cleft developed following the removal of an anterior chamber intraocular lens. The cleft closed and the hypotony resolved after 1 month of topical atropine therapy.
