title: [Ocular decompression retinopathy after trabeculectomy].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Two cases of ocular decompression retinopathy associated with glaucoma filtering surgery are described.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Both patients were young males, intraocular pressures were 35 and 40 mm Hg before surgery. The retinal haemorrhages resolved, and in the only case where it was possible to estimate the visual acuity, it had improved significantly. In the few cases that were reported, most involve young males with markedly high intraocular pressures before surgery and occasionally myopic.
