A 41-year-old patient with congenital glaucoma presented with a perforated scleral wall with the choroidal tissue exposed during the dissection of the partial-thickness scleral flap. By using a Barraquer cyclodialysis spatula through the scleral perforation, the choroid was separated from the sclera up to the scleral spur over 30° into the anterior chamber. The sclera and conjunctiva/Tenon were sutured with 10-0 nylon single sutures. Two months later, the intraocular pressure was reduced to 16 mmHg with no hypotensive topical medications.
