[Conjunctival changes in pseudoexfoliative syndrome].

PURPOSE: Histopathologic study of conjunctival biopsy specimens in patients with or without exfoliation syndrome and mature cataract to reveal the presence of exfoliative material. MATERIAL AND METHOD: There were studied a group of patients with different ages who needed surgical cataract extraction; all patients were examined preoperative for the presence of exfoliation syndrome. The conjunctival biopsy specimens were obtained at the end of cataract surgical procedure in eyes both with exfoliation syndrome and in fellow eyes without clinical evidence of the disease. RESULTS: It has been recorded the presence of the exfoliative material in eyes both with exfoliation syndrome and in fellow eyes without clinical evidence of the disease. CONCLUSIONS: Conjunctiva appears to be an independent source of exfoliation material with early detection in preclinical stage of exfoliation syndrome in fellow eyes that appeared to be clinically unaffected.

[Neovascular glaucoma--prevention].

PURPOSE: The aim of this paper is to analyse the incidence of neovascular glaucoma on a group of patients treated by laser photocoagulation for proliferative diabetic retinopathy and retinal vascular occlusions. MATERIAL AND METHOD: We have studied a group of 277 patients: 112 male and 165 female with ages between 26 and 83 years. 256 patients had proliferative diabetic retinopathy and 21 patients retinal vascular occlusions with ischemic involvement. All this patients were treated with retinal laser photocoagulation. Follow-up period was between 6 months and 2 years. RESULTS: Only 3 patients from the entire group treated with laser photocoagulation had developed neovascular glaucoma. CONCLUSIONS: Prophylactic panretinal photocoagulation is the only method that appears to prevent the neovascular glaucoma and eliminate his devastating complications.

[Incidence of the uveal pseudoexfoliation syndrome in patients with diabetes mellitus].

PURPOSE: To study the incidence of the uveal pseudoexfoliation syndrome in diabetic patients with or without diabetic retinopathy. MATERIAL AND METHOD: There were studied a group of diabetic patients with different ages, with or without diabetic retinopathy; the control group was represented by the non-diabetic patients with similar ages. RESULTS: It has been recorded a high incidence of the uveal pseudoexfoliation syndrome in diabetic patients compare with non-diabetic patients at the same age. CONCLUSIONS: It seems that uveal pseudoexfoliation syndrome is determined by a collagen metabolic alteration which is also present in diabetes mellitus, among other metabolic alterations; this will be the explication for high incidence in diabetic patients.
