ABSTRACT

Liquid silicone is used intravitreally when prolonged intraocular insulation is required to keep the retina applied. Despite its advantages, its use has been associated with some complications such as cataract, keratopathy, ocular hypertension, glaucoma, among others. Secondary ocular hypertension due to silicone oil appears by several mechanisms. The migration of particles to the trabecular meshwork, together with the inflammatory process it generates, represents a challenge for surgeons, hence the different treatment criteria that exist for its complete resolution. The following is a patient operated on for recurrent retinal detachment with ocular hypertension secondary to silicone oil 9 months after the first operation. He was treated with topical and oral ocular hypotensors and it did not resolve, so it was decided to perform cyclocriotherapy in two quadrants. Although this treatment is not the treatment of choice in these cases, we can say that in this patient intraocular pressure control was achieved after only one session.
