Senile pseudoexfoliation in aphakic eyes.

In three eyes which underwent cataract extraction no evidence of senile pseudoexfoliation was found either before, or immediately after, surgery in spite of repeated biomicroscopical examination under full mydriasis. Years later pseudoexfoliative material was found on the anterior hyaloid and on the pupillary border. In another case, wherein the lens was traumatically dislocated and had lain in the inferior vitreous chamber for 53 years, pseudoexfoliative material was present on the anterior hyaloid, but not in the vitreous. Collating these clinical observations with data from electron and light microscopy studies, the authors refute the assumption that lens epithelium is the source of pseudoexfoliative material.

[The artificial crystalline lens implant in diabetic patients].

Are presented the results obtained by artificial lens pupillary implant (Fedorov) at 22 eyes, 18 patients between 48-81 years old, to which the development of cataracta was characterized by a great difference between the eyes. It have been obtained 63% very good visual acuity (5/10 and over) and 31% good (5/15-5/40). The authors Conclusion is the artificial lens implant may be done on diabetic patients if FO doesn't have great modifications.

[The immediate results of trabeculoplasty with the YAG-neodymium laser in wide-angle glaucoma].

There are discussed the observations that had been done for a period of 10 weeks about, after the YAG-neodymium laser trabeculoplasty for 79 eyes suffering of simple chronic glaucoma. The choosing of the patients has been done because of the tensional uncompensation under the maximum treatment for 42 eyes having ocular tension constantly over 30 mm Hg, or because of the lack tolerating the drugs, the secondary, effects, allergy. The average decreasing was of 6.31 mm Hg, high semnificative from the point of view of statistic mathematics but the decreasing of the tension researches 15 mm Hg for isolated cases, that permitting to decrease or renounce the drugs.

Chronic Disease

[An unusual case of "ocular tumor"].

It is presented a case of symptomatic separating of the retina which ophthalmoscopic examination, that with a Goldmann glass and that of echographic one have justified the enucleation for. The anatomopathological examination hasn't put in evidence any tumour and the subsequent clinical evolution has evidenced an orbital hydatid cyst.

[The lessening of papillary excavation after the hypotonic treatment of the glaucomatous eye].

The possibility of improving the aspect of the glaucomatous excavation under the influence of the postoperative ocular hypotonization is shown on 12 eyes (11 patients) observed during the past 13 years. All patients suffered from very advanced chronic simple glaucoma--8 had a C/D 0.9 (postoperatively 0.6 in 3 eyes, 0.4 in 4 eyes and 0.1 in 1 eye), 3 a C/D 0.8 (postoperatively 0.4 in 1 eye and 0.2 in 2 eyes) and 1 a C/D 0.7 (which diminished postoperatively to 0.4). Of the 12 eyes, only one showed an improvement of the visual field, 5 a lowering of the visual acuity (progression of the cataract) and 3 a decrease of the visual field after a new increase of the intraocular pressure.

Aged

[Charleux's method of basal iridectomy].

Retrograde transcorneal iridectomy suggested by Charleux and Etienne was used in 27 eyes (20 patients) suffering from glaucoma with closed angle (in 12 eyes with acute attack and in 15 congeneric eyes) (prophylactic). The post- or intrasurgical complications were absent. The operation was simple and had good results. The hospitalization period was of 2-3 days.

Aged

[Obstructive glaucoma--the comparative results with different surgical technics].

The authors operated 20 eyes of secondary glaucoma, the angle being blocked by goniosynechias (obstructive glaucoma). All the eyes had a past history of 1-7 antiglaucoma operations by conventional techniques without lowering intraocular tension. The Benedikt operation was efficient in 3 of 10 eyes (compensation of less than 24 mmHg with medication); the La Roca technique in 3 of 7 eyes, and the Nesterov operation in none of the 3 eyes in which it was applied.
