[Glaucoma attacks in Weill-Marchesani syndrome].

Presented is a case of Weill-Marchesani syndrome complicated by acute attacks not responding to conservative treatment. The authors discuss a correct procedure in these cases and indications for a surgical intervention.

[Vision disorders as the first symptom of cerebrovascular insufficiencycaused by the changes in the carotid arteries. Studies using the transcranial Doppler ultrasonic apparatus TC2-64B].

Investigations were carried out in 25 patients with carotid arteries changes. A 2 MHz head was used. Direction of the flow, the average speed and index of pulsation were determined. The results were compared with examinations in 13 healthy subjects. Disturbances of vision were shown by 11 patients (44 p.c.). A normal direction of blood perfusion was observed in 8 arteries (25 p.c.), a reversed one in 22 (69 p.c.), in 2 patients no Doppler's signal could be obtained. In arteries with a reversal flow of blood the authors observed the maximal mean speed and the lowest pulsation index. In neither case did the ophthalmological examinations reveal any embolic material. It seems that visual disturbances in patients with carotid arteries changes may be caused by a change of direction of the blood flow from a normal to a reversed one.

Adult

[Simple glaucoma--when to operate?].

An analysis of visual field changes in 105 patients treated conservatively and in 57 patients treated surgically is presented. Both groups have been observed for 5 years. It was established that the surgical procedure should be undertaken before the development of the changes in the visual field.

Adult

[Late results of the surgical treatment of primary glaucoma].

The paper presents the results of surgical treatment of 171 eyes with primary glaucoma. Evaluated was the visual acuity, the visual fields, the coefficient of the aqueous outflow and the mean values of the IOP, 5, 3 and below 3 years since operation. The pharmacological treatment was included in 18% of the operated patients.
