What is the cause of high intraocular pressure after cataract surgery


Healing with compassion, caring with purpose.
The causes of high intraocular pressure after cataract surgery may involve many aspects, analysis is as follows:
1. peripheral anterior synechia surgery
may lead to synechia between the iris and cornea, which will affect the normal flow of eye fluid, resulting in high intraocular pressure after cataract surgery.
2. pupil block
If the surgery causes pupil block, it may also prevent the normal flow of eye fluid, resulting in high intraocular pressure.
3. postoperative inflammation
may lead to adhesion of intraocular tissues, poor intraocular fluid flow, and then lead to high intraocular pressure.
4. implanted iris cyst
After surgery, conjunctiva or corneal epithelial cells may extend along the wound or embedded in the wound tissue, implant in the iris and continue to proliferate to form cysts.
