Vertical sections of optical coherence tomography. Notes: (A) CME accompanied by dome-shaped SRD with large base (November 19, 2012). (B) Visual acuity quickly improved (20/50) and SRD lost its volume in a few days after treatment with an injection of subtenon triamcinolone (November 21, 2012). (C) Small SRD remained just beneath the fovea (November 28, 2012). (D) CME and SRD disappeared and visual acuity improved to 20/40 1 month after injection (December 21, 2012). (E) No recurrence of the CME occurred (May 14, 2013).. Abbreviations: CME, cystoid macular edema; SRD, serous retinal detachment.

However, 9 months after the surgery, the patient complained of blurred vision (20/200), and CME accompanied by SRD was identified with OCT (Figure 1A). After injection of subtenon triamcinolone, visual acuity rapidly recovered to 20/50, and the SRD lost its volume in a few days (Figure 1B). Discontinuation of tafluprost and initiation of diclofenac eye drops improved visual acuity to 20/40 and OCT showed improvements within a few weeks (Figure 1C and D). No recurrence of CME occurred during the following 3 months, and IOP was controlled at 10-15 mmHg (Figure 1E).
