BACKGROUND: We report a case of uveal effusion in a nanophthalmic eye after topical use of brimonidine.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 42-year-old male patient with nanophthalmos experienced sudden blurred vision in the right eye after using topical brimonidine when picking up tennis balls repeatedly 6 weeks after bilateral YAG peripheral iridotomy. Ocular examination showed wide choroidal and exudative retinal detachment in the temporal and inferior region, involving the macula. Acute uveal effusion in the right, bilateral nanophthalmos was diagnosed. Oral and topical corticosteroids, combined with topical nonsteroids and atropine led to a complete resolution of the uveal effusion after one month.
CONCLUSION: This case suggested a possible causal relationship between the topical use of brimonidine and acute uveal effusion in patients with nanophthalmos. Topical brimonidine should be used with caution in nanophthalmic eyes.
