Choroidal detachment after the use of topical latanoprost.
PURPOSE: To report a case of delayed choroidal detachment after treatment with topical latanoprost. METHODS: Interventional case report. Five years after trabeculectomy in a 91-year-old female, a Holmium laser thermal sclerostomy was performed, and a year later, the patient was started on latanoprost.005% every 24 hours and hydrochloride dorzolamide 2% three times daily. RESULTS: Choroidal detachments developed 2.5 years after the sclerostomy; they resolved after discontinuation of the latanoprost and hydrochloride dorzolamide. Subsequently, the patient inadvertently restarted latanoprost. Again, the latanoprost was stopped, with resolution of the choroidal detachments. CONCLUSION: Topical latanoprost may lead to choroidal detachments and hypotony.
