[Mechanisms of laser photocoagulation in diabetic retinopathy].

The aim of laser photocoagulation in diabetic retinopathy is to stop the development of retinal neovessels and even to determine their involution. Early applied, laser photocoagulation can significantly reduce the risk of severe visual loss. The knowledge of the multiple mechanisms of laser photocoagulation leads to the possibility to introduce a well dosed treatment that is appropriate for the clinical stage of the retinopathy.

[Combined surgery--cataract and glaucoma].

We present the case of a 70 years old female patient with bilateral senile cataract, more advanced at the RE; Primary open angle glaucoma, poor compensation with drugs at the RE (with timolol 0.5% and xalatan 0.005%). Combined cataract and glaucoma surgery was performed, using different surgical approach zones. The article describes the therapeutic options in the morbid association of cataract and glaucoma, pointing out the advantages and the indications for each method.

[Our experience with Acrysof Natural intraocular lens].

UNLABELLED: The purpose of this paper is to appreciate the Acrysof Natural IOL comportment during the implantation after phacoemulsification, and to evaluate the visual acuity at 2 months and 2 years postoperative. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Prospective clinical study which comprises 48 patients( 48 eyes) with cataract operated on with phacoemulsification and implantation of Acrysof Natural IOL with the Monarch II injector and the implantation forceps. RESULTS: The patients' age was between 4- 82 years; The IOLs were introduced with the Monarch II injector in 47 cases and with the implantation forceps in 1 case; No IOL was damaged during the implantation; The unfolding and the rotation of the IOL were possible in all cases, without incidents; The visual acuity appreciated 2 months and 2 years postoperative was good in the most of the cases; the chromophore pigment did not influence the quality of vision and the color perception. CONCLUSIONS: The implantation of the Acrysof Natural IOL is identical with the implantation of the Acrysof single piece IOL, is easy to perform and completely atraumatic.

[Phacoemulsification with Advan-Tec system and Neosonix handpiece].

PURPOSE: The comparative analyses of the standard Legacy 20000 efficiency and the AdvanTec Legacy efficiency take into consideration the effective phacoemulsification time, power, and the postoperative clinical outcomes. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective clinical study which comprises 2 groups of patients operated on with phacoemulsification: 200 eyes were operated on using the classic handpiece of the Legacy 20000 system; 200 eyes were operated on using the AdvanTec Legacy system and the NeoSoniX handpiece. RESULTS: The effective phacoemulsification time in the standard Legacy group was under 0.4 min in 40 cases (20%), between 0.4-1.2 min in 120 cases (60%), and more than 1.2 min in 40 cases (20%). The effective phaco time in the AdvanTec-NeoSoniX group was under 0.4 min in 118 cases (59%), between 0.4-1.2 min in 72 cases (36%) and more than 1.2 min in 10 cases (5%). The mean phacoemulsification power varied between 19-38% in the first group and 14-22% in the second group. Descemetic striae and corneal edema on the first postoperative day were observed in 38 eyes (19%) in the Legacy standard group, and 18 eyes (9%) in the AvanTec-NeoSonix group. CONCLUSIONS: The progression from the standard Legacy to the AdvanTec Legacy system with NeoSoniX handpiece led to the reduction in phacoemulsification power by two mechanisms, oscillation, which breaks the nucleus, and vacuum, which removes and evacuates the nuclear material.

[Controversies connected with the therapeutic approach in palpebral epitheliomas].

OBJECTIVE: We try to clarify some controversies related to the palpebral epitheliomas, controversies related to the therapeutical applied attitude (surgery, radiotherapy or the association of the two therapeutical methods), to the indications and contraindications of their application. MATERIAL AND METHOD: It is a review study of the Military Hospital and Oncologic Institute Cluj-Napoca casuistry between 1984-1994, which comprises 244 patients with palpebral epitheliomas, histologically confirmed. This casuistry was followed taking into consideration the age, sex, histological type, anatomo clinical presentation, TNM clinical stage, the localisation of the tumor, the type of the applied treatment, complications, healing and the therapeutical failures. RESULTS: The efficiency of the applied therapeutical methods was considered related to their obtained results to the therapeutical failures. The rate of healing at 5 years was 90.57% for the whole group. CONCLUSIONS: 1. The two methods of treatment seems to be equally sensible concerning the therapeutical efficiency in stages I and II. 2. In the advanced stages (III and IV) our option is for mixing the two methods. An optimum treatment for each patient is possible only if there is a close cooperation between the ophthalmologist-surgeon, plastic surgeon and the radiation oncologist.

[The clinico-echographic agreements and disagreements in oculo-orbital lesions. The feasibility of the examination methods].

The authors present a study made in the period November 1987-1989 on 108 subjects examined clinically echographic and also with some other investigation methods (radiology, laboratory with radio-tracers). There are presented the results obtained on structures of pathology (strokes, primary or metastatic intraocular tumours, medical diseases of the ocular globe). The concordance and disagreement between the results obtained using the investigation with ultrasounds and the clinical investigation completed with some other investigation methods is expressed in the level of fiability of the echographic method (on structures of diseases and generally). The confirmations are justified by: the intraoperative diagnosis, the postoperative evolution, the therapeutical test and also by the histopathological exam in the cases in which this was affected.

[Chandler's basal iridectomy. Our observations on surgical indications, technic and value].

Basal iridectomy is a pupillary bypass having a prophylactic role, when made on an eye with potential glaucoma, and a curative role when performed on an eye with primary narrow angle glaucoma in the reversible stage of the disease. The authors present their experience on 37 eyes, using Charleux-Etienne's technique that, compared with Chandler's technique is more advantageous: the limb remains intact for a possible future operation, it is simple, rapid, without risks, efficient and elegant.
