Hemorrhagic Descemet’s Membrane Detachment in Nonpenetrating Glaucoma Surgery

Conclusion: Hemorrhagic DM detachment is a rare but potential vision-threatening complication in glaucoma surgery. Different mechanisms may cause the bleeding and there are several techniques available to approach this complication. Pre-Descemet hematoma should be drained to avoid permanent corneal stain and air/gas tamponade may help to prevent recurrences.
