The resorption time was almost the same (4 days) regardless of the treatment modality the patient received.
Four (3.3%) patients developed a rebleed, two (5%) in the first (steroid only) group and 2 (5%) in the third (control)
group. The final visual acuities (FVA) were < 0.3 log MAR in all (100%) the patients in the second (steroid cyclo) and
third (control) groups, the mean log MAR is 0.05 and 0.035 in the second and third group respectively. However in
the first (steroid only) group 36(90%) patients had FVA of < 0.3 log MAR and 4 (10%) had FVA > 0.3 log MAR on
discharge, the mean log MAR is 0.1.P value of (0.04). The cause of the decline in final visual acuity in these 4 patients
was the development of traumatic cataract rather than the treatment used. A total of 14 patients (11.6 %) developed
a mild to moderate elevation of IOP (23-29 mmHg); 10 (25%) in the first (steroid only) group, 2 (5%) in the second
(steroid cyclo) group and 2 (5%) in the third (control) group. In all cases, the IOP returned to normal either without
treatment or with short term Timolol eye drops.
