Acute angle closure glaucoma after hypospadias surgery: A vision-threatening complication of oxybutynin

Solifenacin succinate is useful in eliminating OAB symptoms in female patients, but can cause systemic side effects. It had no significant side effects on tear secretion (Schirmer I) and IOP. We concluded that solifenacin succinate could be reliably used in pure OAB patients without comorbidity in terms of dry eye and IOP. We believe that prospective studies with larger series are still needed to reach a definite conclusion.

An early and correct diagnosis improves the prognosis of post-operative Acute angle closure glaucoma (AACG). A 65 years-old monophtalmus man was operated for a total knee replacement surgery, under general anaesthesia without any adverse events. The day after, the patient described recurrent periorbital pain in his eye, with ocular hyperaemia, and reduced visual acuity. A diagnosis of AACG was made and conservative treatment was started to reduce the intraocular pressure. In the post-operative AACG, several predisposing local factors including genetic predisposition, female gender, hypermetropia, increased lens thickness and small corneal diameter, can be added to a pupillary block induced by adrenergic and anticholinergic drugs used in anaesthetic procedures as risk factors. An acute and intensive periorbital or ocular pain, with or without visual disturbance, must aware the physician.
