Abstract
Stickler syndrome, a rare connective tissue disorder, presents with a broad spectrum of ocular manifestations, including myopia, vitreoretinal degeneration, glaucoma, and retinal detachment. While extensive data exists on the treatment outcomes of retinal detachment repair in Stickler syndrome, the potential risks associated with acute postoperative intraocular pressure elevation remain underexplored. We report the case of a 10-year-old boy with Stickler syndrome who underwent scleral buckling surgery and subsequently experienced ocular hypertension.
