PURPOSE. To report serous macular detachment in two patients with cystoid macular edema (CME) associated with latanoprost. METHODS. Two eyes of two patients with CME associated with latanoprost underwent an ophthalmoscopic examination, fluorescein angiography, and optical coherence tomography (OCT). RESULTS. In both patients, besides CME, OCT showed serous macular detachment composed of retinal elevation over a nonreflective cavity with minimal shadowing of the underlying tissues. CONCLUSIONS. This is the first case report that shows an association between serous macular detachment and CME associated with latanoprost.
