The simplicity of Charleux's technique for peripheral iridectomy is underlined. In a lot of 15 eyes with acute angle closure glaucoma, the i.o.p. after surgery was under 21 mm Hg when the attack lasted less than 48 hours. In a second group of 20 eyes with occludable angle/congener eyes suffered attacks/peripheral iridectomy with Charleux's technique prevented acute angle closure/56 months of postoperative observation.
The paper presents the evolution at ten eyes (nine patients) that presented expulsive hemorrhage during surgical act of extracapsular extraction with implant of crystalline lens. There are several cases of extracapsular extraction than intracapsular extraction which were more short like duration. The frequency of female was 90% from cases. The good results show the efficiency of associated treatment: closing of the eyeball with scleral punctura and internal tamponing. Only one eye was lost functionally.
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.
Comparison of the decrease in intraocular tension in a group of 25 patients show that the collyria of oxprenolol, 0.25%, led to an average decrease of 6.36 mmHg, whereas that of thymolol maleate, 0.25%, to a decrease of 8.76 mmHg. Both decreases were statistically significant versus the initial intraocular tension.

The Barkan goniotomy is more effective as the anterior chamber is longer maintained during the operation. The authors succeeded in good angular debridation, maintaining the chamber using a metilcelulosis solution from a 2 cc syringe and abandoning any other tubulature for infusion liquids. There were good results at 5 years, with lowering and the reducing of the corneal diameters, by a unique goniotomy.
The authors emphasize the main features of the "adjustable suture" in concomitant strabismus surgery. Good results (over 92% of orthotropia) were noted especially in very young children (under 3 years of age)--cases in which an exact study on the status of motricity and vision is not possible.
The authors present the case of a family consisting of eight members (belonging to three generations). Among them there are three cases with increased glaucomatous excavation (C/D 0.7-0.8) but normal visual field and ocular blood pressure. Their clinical tracking, till the age of 16, excepts the possibility of glaucoma in these cases, only a genetically transmitted abnormality being implied.
The authors review different methods for quantifying papilae's modifications in glaucoma. For each method the possible errors are discussed. The conclusion is that C/D evaluation based only on biomicroscopical measurements is acceptable in everyday practice, the nervous fiber ring's measurement being not yet accurate and simple enough to be widely applied.
The superior-temporal subluxation of the crystalline lens at the patients with Marfan syndrome makes optic problems who need a surgical solution. It describes one aspiration technique with concomitant support of crystalline lens, underlining the specifics features what are meet here: exessive hardness of crystalloid and the content of crystalline's sack. At eight operated eyes, the postoperatorial visual acuity restored at values over 5/10.
