Early recognition and treatment of this syndrome are essential to avoid complications associated with prolonged elevated IOP.
Özet
Bu çalışmada laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) cerrahisi sonrası gelişen, steroidle indüklenmiş göz içi basınç (GİB) artışının neden olduğu flep ara yüzey sıvı birikimi sendromlu bir hasta tariflenmiştir. Çalışmamızın amacı aplanasyon tonometresi ile yalancı olarak düşük GİB ölçümüne neden olan ve bu yüzden steroidle uyarılan glokomu maskeleyen flep ara yüzey sıvı birikimi sendromunun oküler bulgularının ve klinik seyrinin önemine vurgu yapmaktır. Bu sendromun erken tanı ve tedavisi artmış GİB'na bağlı komplikasyonlardan kaçınmak için esastır.
