摘要
We present a case of a central Descemet's membrane detachment (DMD) induced by an Ophthalmic Viscosurgical Device during phacoemulsification surgery that resolved spontaneously, leaving a best spectacle corrected visual acuity of 20/20. The detachment was monitored with serial anterior segment optical coherence tomography images. Most cases of central DMD reported in the literature have been managed surgically to facilitate rapid visual recovery and minimize the risk of scarring. Our case adds to the literature in providing an alternative management strategy where surgical intervention may not be possible.
