Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Acute corneal hydrops (ACH) is a rare ocular injury, with high comorbidity, with several surgical techniques described, but which continues to have high rates of therapeutic failures, surgical reapproaches and complications. This work presents the case of a young patient with ACH secondary to keratoconus treated with the unusual method of applying an autologous blood patch to the corneal stroma and describes the experience of the peribulbar block as an anesthetic strategy to manage an ophthalmological condition that manifests several physiological changes and anatomical features in the orbital region.
