[Age-related changes in fibronectin of the eye outflow drainage system].

The content of the fibronectin, an extracellular glycoprotein in the drainage outflow system of human eyes was determined by the indirect immunoperoxidase staining technique. The degree of fibronectin accumulation in ocular tissues was evaluated by quantitative morphometric analysis. It was shown that the fibronectin level was elevated in ageing. Increased deposit of fibronectin in trabecular tissues, mainly, in the inner wall of Schlemm's canal and juxta-canalicular zone was demonstrated along with ageing. Comparison of fibronectin accumulation in glaucoma and ageing support the idea that ageing is a risk factor of glaucoma.

[Experience in the surgical treatment of neovascular diabetic glaucoma].

A new operation for neovascular glaucoma, filtrating vitrectomy, is described. The operation is based on creation of a permanent microfistula in the posterior chamber of the eye and simultaneous replacement of the viscous vitreous body with the isotonic saline. Filtrating vitrectomy was performed in 46 eyes with neovascular diabetic glaucoma. The intraocular pressure was normalized completely without medication in 70 per cent cases in the early postoperative period and in 66 per cent cases in the long term (12-39 months) period.

[Complex method for examining children with false myopia].

The authors propose a complex method for examining children with false myopia. The complex includes routine methods for detecting and evaluating the stability of spasm, measurement of the relative accommodation reserve, ophthalmic tone, and anteroposterior axis of the eye. The method allows differentiation between false and true myopia, evaluates its degree, and helps prescribe etiopathogenetic treatment for ruling out the transfer of false myopia into true (axial).

[Submuscular decompression multisclerectomy - new operation for neovascular glaucoma].

A new intervention for neovascular glaucoma is suggested: submuscular decompression multisclerectomy with collagen implant impregnated with 5-fluorouracyl. Immediate and remote (up to 2.5 years) results in 29 patients were analyzed. Intraoperative complications were observed in 24.1% cases: vitreous prolapse in 13.8% and hyphema in 10.3%. Ophthalmic tone compensation was attained in 96% cases in the early postoperative period and in 63% in remote period. Painful syndrome was arrested in 96 and 65% cases, respectively. The hypotensive effect of the operation is due to an increase in the volume of the eyeball and enhancement of uveoscleral discharge.

[Use of low-frequency ultrasound in preoperative care of the conjunctival cavity].

Experimental and clinical studies of the efficacy of preoperative treatment of the conjunctival cavity with low-frequency ultrasound were carried out. Ultrasound parameters employed were as follows: 20-70 kHz frequency, 25-35 microns oscillation amplitude, length of exposure 60-120 sec. Such treatment was found to reduce bacterial contamination of the conjunctival cavity. Clinical studies were carried out on 20 eyes of 14 patients operated on for cataracts and glaucomas at the department for ocular diseases of the Moscow municipal clinical hospital No. 15. Low-frequency ultrasound treatment of the conjunctival cavity was carried out before surgery in all these patients. In the reference patients (n = 15, 15 eyes) the conjunctival cavity was washed with 1:5000 furacilin solution and 30% sodium sulfacil solution or kanamycin solution (10,000 U in 1 ml) on the operation table. The bacterial contamination of the conjunctival cavity prior to surgery in 24 eyes has made up 84.1 bacterial colonies per Petri dish on an average. Preoperative treatment of the conjunctival cavity with low-frequency ultrasound has reduced the bacterial contamination to 6.3 colonies per Petri dish, i.e. by 13.3 times.
