[Bulbus motility in early and late surgery of orbital floor fractures (author's transl)].

Among 638 patients with fractures of the middle third of the facial skeleton 139 were found to have clinically relevant fractures of the orbital floor. 74 of them were followed up ophthalmologically and by x-ray examination. In 49 patients the results of the operative treatment were judged from a detailed questionnaire. Operation within 2 weeks after the accident yielded better results than later operation. Persisting motility disturbances concerned mainly the upper field of gaze.

[Results of a glaucoma mass screening program (author's transl)].

During a so called "glaucoma-week" the intraocular pressure of 4661 persons was measured and the statistics obtained were evaluated according to the spss-program. The mean value of the intraocular pressure was 17.18 mm Hg, the standard deviation +/-3.78 mm Hg. The frequencies of various pressure values were in accordance with a Gaussian distribution up to 21 mm Hg. For higher applanation scores a deviation from the Gaussian line became obvious, increasing in intensity with age. Therefore a subpopulation is postulated consisting of persons with diabetes, arteriosclerosis or family history of glaucoma.
