PURPOSE: To study intraocular pressure (IOP) outcomes after surgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in Schwartz syndrome. METHODS: We reviewed records of 32 eyes of 32 patients with Schwartz syndrome (patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, IOP above 21 mmHg, and open angles without angle recession, chronic steroid use or other secondary causes of increased IOP) who had undergone surgical treatment consisting of scleral buckling or vitrectomy. Intraocular pressure, number of medication, best-corrected visual acuity were compared at baseline and postsurgery visits and also studied association of various factors on long-term IOP. RESULTS: The median duration of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment was 2 months, and the inter quartile range was 1 to 12 months. Follow-up was 15 months (inter quartile range: 7-33 months). Sixteen (50%) had prior ocular trauma. Baseline IOP was 35 ± 8 mmHg, and 12% (4/32) of patients were on IOP-lowering medication at presentation. At the final visit, mean IOP was 17 ± 6 mmHg and 59% patients (19/32) required additional IOP-lowering medication or surgery for IOP control. CONCLUSION: Surgical management of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment resulted in significant reduction in IOP. At the final visit, 41% did not require any IOP-lowering medication or surgical intervention for IOP control.
