Abstract Purpose:Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)is a comorbidity in 2.3-8% of patients with atopic dermatitis(AD). Herein, we report two cases of RRD with severe AD manifesting unusual inflammatory reactions after scleral buckling(SB).

Case presentations:Case 1:A 28-year-old woman with severe AD developed RRD in the left eye during follow-up after atopic cataract surgery. SB using a silicone tire(ST)was performed for the treatment. Although the retina was reattached after SB surgery, severe ocular pain and conjunctival hyperemia were observed 1 day after surgery. Treatment with oral corticosteroid improved conjunctival hyperemia transiently, but the bulbar conjunctiva melted gradually and the ST was exposed. We attempted to cover the ST with autologous conjunctiva, but the ST was re-exposed. Subsequently, the exposed ST was partially excised. Dermatological investigation revealed hypersensitivity reaction to ST. Eventually, the entire ST was removed, and ocular inflammation subsided.

 Case 2:A 47-year-old man with severe AD underwent SB for RRD in the left eye. The postoperative course was uneventful, but on day 5 after surgery, visual acuity of the left eye suddenly decreased to hand motion. Severe conjunctival edema, hypopyon, and vitreous opacity were observed. Medical treatment with antibiotics was initiated according to the treatment protocol for postoperative infectious endophthalmitis, but the response was limited. From the 3rd day after the start of treatment, intravenous corticosteroid infusion promptly improved conjunctival hyperemia, resolved hypopyon, and recovered fundus transparency.

Conclusions:We encountered two cases manifesting unique inflammatory reactions after SB surgery. Although the pathogenic cause is unknown, the inflammatory reactions observed in these two cases are presumably associated with the underlying condition of severe AD.
