Purpose: To report a case of secondary glaucoma and sclerokeratitis after cosmetic eye whitening by regional conjunctivectomy with Mitomycin C application. Case summary: A 69 year-old man was referred to our clinic for a left ocular pain and ocular hypertension sustained for 3 months after cosmetic eye whitening by regional conjunctivectomy with Mitomycin C application for chronic conjunctival hyperemia. On first examination, the scleromalacia and large conjunctival epithelium defect in the nasal quadrant of the limbus area and diffuse sclerokeratitis were observed. Conjunctival and episcleral vessel deficit were seen except superior 30% portion in the left eye. The anterior chamber depth in the left eye was very shallow compared to the right eye and cell reaction in the left anterior chamber was detected. Intraocular pressure (IOP) in the left eye was 28 mmHg after CosoptⓇ and 15% mannitol 500 ml use. Glaucomatous cupping was detected. During follow-up, left IOP increased over 40 mmHg despite the maximal medical treatment and the progression of visual field defects was detected, so then left phacoemulsification, Ahmed valve implantation and amnion membrane transplantation were done. After surgery, the conjunctival epithelial defect and sclerokeratitis were improved much and IOP was regulated 20~30 mmHg without medication. Digital massage was done 2 times per day for decreasing IOP and wound remodeling after 1 month. At 3 month after surgery, the conjunctival epithelial defect recurred and scleromalacia was also progressed, so then we performed autoconjunctival flap and amnion membrane transplantation in left eye. The conjunctival epithelial defect were recovered completely, IOP was regulated 24~36 mmHg without medication, and 20~24 mmHg with Cosopt.Ⓡ The compliance of patient is very poor, further management may be needed for IOP control. Conclusions: Cosmetic eye whitening by regional conjunctivectomy with Mitomycin C application can cause serious complications such as scleromalcia and secondary glaucoma. This case shows that particular care should be taken in order to minimize these complications. J Korean Ophthalmol Soc 2009;50(12):1892-1897
