Anterior segment complications following periocular and intraocular injections.

Significant anterior segment complications can occur following periocular or intraocular injections. These complications may be intraoperative or postoperative. They vary with different procedures and may be secondary to the surgical procedure or related to drug toxicity. Cataract and increased intraocular pressure are the most frequent complications. Other less commonly reported complications include hypotony, hyphema, corneal decompensation, strabismus, and cosmetic complications.
