We report a case of 67-year-old with a type 2 diabetes on insulin therapy followed for moderete proliferative diabetic retinopathy undergoing pan-retinal photocoagulation (PRP) who suffered from ocular redness and pain after the application of Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (indomethacine) post-PRP. Slit lamp examination, a corneal perforation was noted on the inferotemporal side of the right eye, with iris that seals the perforation. We performed an anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) of the right eye revealing corneal perforation with iris plugging the perforation and re-epithelialization of the defect.
