Cyclodialysis clefts are rare. The most common reason for presentation is blunt-ocular trauma followed by various iatrogenic interventions. Diagnosis is particularly challenging and various new noninvasive techniques have been described to facilitate this process, such as ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) and the anterior segment OCT (AS-OCT). The management of cyclodialysis clefts should be conservative initially followed by a variety of nonsurgical and surgical modalities to achieve closure.
