Abstract
To report delayed hyphema and intravitreal blood as complications following intrableb autologous blood injection after trabeculectomy. Case report. A 44-year-old woman with hypotony and maculopathy after trabeculectomy with mitomycin C received an intrableb autologous blood injection. Three days after the blood injection, a hyphema formed and subsequently dispersed into the vitreous. Although immediate hyphema from autologous blood injection is common, hyphema may be delayed and associated with intravitreal blood.
