Combined surgery for severe eye trauma with extensive iridodialysis, posterior lens dislocation, and intractable glaucoma.

A 44-year-old woman sustained a severe left eye contusion from the explosion of a plastic bottle containing fermented orange juice. This resulted in extensive iridodialysis, posterior crystalline lens dislocation, and intractable glaucoma. Eleven days after the injury, combined surgery of trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C, pars plana vitrectomy, lens removal, iridodialysis repair, and scleral-fixated intraocular lens implantation under general anesthesia was performed. Intraocular pressure (IOP) was under control until 5 weeks postoperatively; glaucoma implant surgery was then performed. At the last follow-up 15 months after the combined surgery, best corrected visual acuity was 20/50 and IOP was 15 mm Hg without medication. Combined surgery can be considered a safe, effective option in the management of severe eye trauma in selected cases.
