Causes of low intraocular pressure after silicone oil injection for retinal detachment surgery

Low intraocular pressure after silicone oil injection for retinal detachment surgery may be normal, or it may be related to visual fatigue, choroidal detachment and other factors.
1. Normal situation: Temporary low intraocular pressure after surgery may be normal, because the silicone oil injection may affect the ciliary body secretion function, which needs to be observed regularly.
2. Visual fatigue: When patients do not pay attention to their eyes after taking surgery and use their eyes excessively for a long time, it may lead to visual fatigue and low intraocular pressure.
3. Choroidal detachment: When the patient damages the ciliary body and choroid during surgery, it may lead to accumulation of blood or other fluids between the ciliary body and the choroid, resulting in low intraocular pressure.
Patients who have low intraocular pressure after the retinal detachment surgery with silicone oil injection are advised to go to the hospital for timely examination and take targeted treatment after the cause of the disease is clarified under the guidance of the doctor.
