Nonarteritic Ischemic Optic Neuropathy Due to the Increased Intraocular Pressure During Cataract Surgery: A Case Report
A 46-year-old patient diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis underwent cataract surgery for a subcapsular cataract. Perioperative intraocular pressure (IOP) increased after two sideport incisions. Despite administration of 300 cc of 20% mannitol, the elevated IOP persisted for 30 minutes. IOP decrease...
