Abstract
Method: A 38-year-old male patient referred with history of blunt trauma to the right eye . Had complaints of diminution of vision, redness and pain in the right eye. Detailed ophthalmic evaluation was done.
Results: On examination best corrected visual acuity was 6/24 in right eye. Ocular motility was normal.There was no monoocular diplopia. Slit lamp examination showed micro hyphema, iridodialysis and iris tear at 1o’ clock position and irregular pupil, lens was clear.Intraocular pressure was 12mmhg with rebound tonometry. Fundus was hazy due to micro hyphema. B-scan was unremarkable. Patient was managed conservatively with improvement in best corrected visual acuity to 6/9.
Conclusion:Superior iridodialysis seen in case of blunt trauma to the eye can be managed conservatively in the absence of diplopia.
