  2.19  Hypotony

Ferenc Kuhn

2.19.1Introduction

Normal IOP is a “conditio sine qua non” for maintaining the size and visual function of the eye. If the IOP is permanently below a certain value, the globe is prone to shrink in size (phthisis) and eventually lose vision even if the retina is healthy. The hypotony may be caused by an increase in outflow or a decrease in aqueous production.

2.19.2Evaluation

In addition to a low IOP reading, certain slit lamp and ultrasonographic findings may also be present. Some of these are the consequences, others possibly the cause, of the low IOP:

Corneal edema with folds

Scleral folding [5]

Shallow AC

Greenish-grayish discoloration of the iris

Cataract

Chorioretinal effusion, thickening, and folds

Tortuosity of retinal vessels

Retinal detachment

Edema of the disc and macula (“hypotony maculopathy”)

Approximately 46 mmHg

466 Ferenc Kuhn

2.19.3Treatment

Hypotony and phthisis are not diseases: they are the consequence of a certain intraocular pathology. It is this pathology that requires treatment (see below). If the underlying cause responsible for hypotony cannot be cured, silicone oil implantation remains the only hope for preventing phthisis. If the IOP is restored, the visual function can improve substantially [3].

2.19.4Specific Conditions Responsible for Hypotony

2.19.4.1Increased Aqueous Outflow

2.19.4.1.1Wound Leak

The wound is usually easy to find, although occasionally an occult rupture or exit wound (see Chap. 2.12) is responsible. If a corneal wound has spontaneously closed, the diagnosis may be difficult, but Seidel positivity (see Chap. 2.2) is a telling sign.

The treatment is straightforward: surgical wound closure.

2.19.4.1.2Ciliochoroidal Detachment

The pathomechanism of how the detachment and hypotony interrelate is not absolutely clear [2], but a vicious circle may be caused by the hypotony leading to inflammation, transudation, and decreased aqueous secretion with consequent hypotony. The suprauveal fluid may be a transudate or blood.

The treatment is primarily anti-inflammatory (topical cycloplegics and corticosteroids); paradoxically, CAIs may be given to speed up the absorption of the suprauveal fluid. Viscoelastics can be injected into the AC [1], the ciliary body reattached with sutures, or the suprauveal fluid drained (see Chap. 2.8).

2.19.4.1.3Retinal Detachment

The pathomechanism of increased fluid removal by the RPE is unknown. The treatment is reattachment of the retina (see Chap. 2.9).

  2.19  Hypotony

2.19.4.1.4Retinectomy

In eyes with a large area of denuded RPE, hypotony ensues; this has even been utilized in bringing down the IOP in blind eyes with otherwise intractable glaucoma (see Chap. 2.18).

The treatment is destruction of the RPE in the area of retinectomy to prevent aqueous drainage, or silicone oil implantation to prevent aqueous access. A blunt-tipped diathermy probe is used for choroid (RPE) destruction; it is much more difficult and risky to use scissors or the vitrectomy probe for this purpose.

2.19.4.1.5Choroidal Detachment

In this poorly understood condition, fluid collects in the suprachoroidal space via effusion. The choroid remains separated from the sclera and the fluid reaccumulates after drainage.

As a treatment option, the eye can be filled with silicone oil (see below) or retinal tacks can be used to affix the choroid to the sclera (see Chap. 2.9). The primary cause of the hypotony needs to be addressed.

With regard to cyclodialysis, see Chap. 2.8.

2.19.4.2Reduced Aqueous Secretion

2.19.4.2.1Inflammation

Anterior uveitis, verified by the presence of flare and cells in the AC and signaling the breakdown of the bloodaqueous barrier, causes ciliary body edema. Another possible mechanism is increased uveoscleral outflow [6].

The treatment is anti-inflammatory (see above).

2.19.4.2.2Ciliary Body “Shock”

Following a contusion, the ciliary body may temporarily halt aqueous production without the presence of any of the pathologies described in this

Inflammation can also elevate the IOP (see Chap. 2.18).

chapter or Chap. 2.8. The AC is shallow and the cornea may show foldings of Descemet’s membrane.

The treatment is injection of viscoelastics into the AC, repeatedly if necessary. It may take months for the ciliary body to recover.

2.19.4.2.3Ciliary Body Destruction

The etiology is the same as above, except that there is true and visible damage to the ciliary epithelium and processes. The ciliary processes are shortened, may have lost some of their pigment content, and can dramatically shrink with time (Fig. 2.19.1). The pathomechanism is probably vascular occlusion. Commonly there is a serious iris abnormality as well.

There is no treatment for the condition, although phthisis may be preventable (see below). Anterior PVR can also destroy the ciliary body if the scar is not removed in time (see Chap. 2.8).

2.19.5Consequence of Chronic Hypotony: Phthisis

The difference between an eye in “prephthisical” vs “phthisical” stage is that in the latter, tissue disruption is evident; the condition results from the cessation of aqueous production. If treatment of all known pathologies, including that of anterior PVR, has been exhausted and the eye starts to shrink, there are two options left besides eye removal (see below).

This is the clinician’s observation; there is no explanation for the phenomenon in the available literature.

Major iris damage is an indicator of ciliary body trauma (see Chap. 2.6). The term means “wasting away”.

Meticulous removal of membranes covering the ciliary body should be attempted even in late cases. The phthisis is not reversible but stoppable if the intervention was not too late – but this can be determined only after the attempted scar removal has failed, and should not serve as an excuse not to attempt scar removal.

Fig. 2.19.1  Intraoperative image of repair for ciliary body destruction. This 8-year-old boy had a rupture with vitreous hemorrhage. He underwent several surgeries and eventually the eye was given up on. He developed iris scarring into the wound; there was no pupil, the retina was detached, the visual acuity was light perception, and the axial length of the previously emmetropic eye was 21 mm. After a pupil was created, the ciliary body was debulked, the preand subretinal scars were removed, and silicone oil was implanted (restricted to the vitreous cavity). There was no anterior PVR. The most probable explanation for the partial destruction of the ciliary processes (arrow) is that the posterior lens capsule was not removed originally. Twelve months after surgery, the IOP is normal, the eye has stopped shrinking, the retina is attached, and the visual acuity has improved to 20/40

2.19.5.1Permanent Keratoprosthesis

Implanting such a device (see Chaps. 2.15, 3.1) may not only preserve the eye but actually improve function [4].

2.19.5.2Silicone Oil Fill

The purpose of silicone oil implantation is different here from that in all other indications, in which the surgeon’s aim is to achieve a 100% fill in the vitreous cavity without silicone oil prolapse into the AC.

470 Ferenc Kuhn

ZPearl

The goal of silicone oil implantation in the prevention or “treatment” of phthisis management is to achieve a “101%” fill: the entire globe, not only the vitreous cavity, is filled, and the IOP is set at a higher-than- normal value to mechanically prevent globe shrinkage.

The surgical steps are as follows:

Perform a complete vitreous removal if this has not yet been done.

Remove the lens in its entirety if the eye is still phakic. If the eye is pseudophakic, remove the IOL and the capsule.

Perform a large inferior iridectomy.

Do a fluid−air exchange.

Be patient until the BSS is completely evacuated from the eye.

Do a total air−silicone oil change: the AC must also be filled

 

(Fig. 2.19.2). High-viscosity oil (i.e., 5000 centistokes) may be used,

 

but because intraocular movement of the silicone oil is prevented, the

emulsification risk is lower than usual.

Set the IOP at 30−35 mmHg.

The cornea is expected to tolerate the silicone oil touch for many months, even years, but eventually it will gradually opacify. When zonular opacity appears, there is ample time to decide whether PK with an “oil change” is performed, or the blind, potentially painful, and cosmetically unappealing eye is removed (enucleation or evisceration). This decision is best made by the patient (see Chap. 1.4).

This is not truly treatment but rather a prophylaxis of further deterioration.

Based on the principle that fluids are incompressible.

The goal is to prevent any aqueous that may still be produced to access the cornea. The endothelium will survive longer if silicone is able to prevent “aqueous touch.”

This is stopped when the internal volume of the eye equals that of the silicone oil. c If the eye is completely filled with silicone oil (i.e., the vitreous cavity as well as the AC), globe shrinkage is prevented

DO:

intervene early if the IOP is low after an injury

restore normal ciliary body anatomy as soon as possible since this almost always restores normal aqueous production; anterior PVR is the most common preventable cause of enucleation due to phthisis

DON’T:

give up on the eye even if shrinking of the globe has already started; although phthisis is irreversible, further shrinkage can be halted
