[Comparative evaluation of the results of various methods of scleroplasty in progressive myopia].

Six methods of scleroplasty are compared. A total of 476 operations on 423 eyes of 224 patients were carried out. The advantages of the technique suggested by the authors--fortification of the eyeball posterior pole with an auto-cartilage plate of the concha of the auricle 15 X 10 X 1 (1.5) mm in size--were revealed: both the immediate and late results of surgery were good, the surgery was low traumatic, no allergic reactions were recorded, the unpleasant sensations of the patients were the minimal; possible complications of scleroplasty, such as optic nerve and vorticose vein compression or perforation of thinned sclera, became less threatening.
