Peribulbar vs. incisionless sub-Tenon's blocks: a retrospective cohort study

Minor complications including subconjunctival haemorrhage and chemosis were more common in the incisionless sub-Tenon's block; however, this difference was statistically balanced on the first postoperative day. One patient in the peribulbar block developed retrobulbar hemorrhage, whereas there was no major complication in the incisionless sub-Tenon's block. According to those results, incisionless sub-Tenon's block seems to be a safe and reliable alternative for ophthalmic procedures.
