[Assessment of individual eye protection devices based on their effect on the frequency-contrast characteristics of the visual analyzer].

Assessment of means for individual eye protection by the method of visocontrastometry, allows, already at the stage of projecting, to determine the correctness of selecting vision glasses by conditions of visual work. Investigations of 3 kinds of goggles: for reindeer breeders of Far North (2 variants), for mechanics and for protection from pesticides have shown that by their influence on frequency-contrast characteristic all they comply with physiologic hygienic demands. The value of the used method of control of the quality of individual eye protection means is established.

Filtering iridocycloretraction in chronic closed-angle glaucoma.

In 98 patients, 112 eyes with chronic closed-angle or combined glaucoma were operated on using filtering iridocycloretraction, including preparation of two limbal-based scleral strips that were introduced through scleral incisions into the anterior chamber and the supraciliary space. The intraocular pressure was controlled (less than or equal to 21 mm Hg) in 107 eyes by surgery alone and in two eyes with medication by three to four weeks postoperatively. Ninety-one eyes were followed up for 12 to 30 months (mean, 19 months). The intraocular pressure was controlled in 78 eyes by surgery alone and in four eyes with medication. Three eyes were operated on repeatedly.

'Valve trabeculotomy' in glaucoma.

The surgical technique of "valve trabeculotomy" includes preparing the superficial and the inner limboscleral flaps while the midscleral lamina is excised. The operation was performed on 100 glaucomatous eyes of 82 patients. Postoperative complications included hyphema in 11 cases, mild iridocyclitis in four eyes, and choroidal detachment in six cases. Three to four weeks after surgery, the intraocular pressure was controlled (less than or equal to 21 mm Hg) in 96 eyes by surgery alone and in three eyes by surgery and medication. In 11 to 30 months (mean, 18 months) 95 eyes of 77 patients were examined. The IOP was controlled in 84 eyes by surgery alone and in five eyes by surgery and medication.

Implantation of a scleral strip into the supraciliary space and cyclodialysis in glaucoma.

Since 1975 the operation of implantation of a scleral strip (10 mm long and 2 mm wide) has been performed on 75 glaucomatous patients. The following variants of surgical technique were used: (1) implantation of an autoscleral strip into the supraciliary space, (2) implantation of an autoscleral strip combined with cyclodialysis and (3) implantation of a homoscleral (cadaver) strip combined with cyclodialysis. The first technique was employed in 12 cases. The intraocular pressure was controlled by surgery alone in only four eyes, though a decrease in the level of the intraocular pressure and an increase in the C-value occurred in each case. No significant difference between the results obtained with the second and the third techniques was found. Of 63 eyes operated on, the intraocular pressure was controlled in 41 eyes (65%) by surgery alone and in 11 other eyes with the help of miotics 3 to 4 weeks after surgery. Follow-up was for a period of from 12 to 23 months in 51 cases. The pressure was under control in 36 eyes (71%) without medication and in 10 more eyes with miotics. The rate of complications was low. Hyphaema appeared in 10 cases and mild iridocyclitis occurred in 11 cases. There was no case of choroidal detachment, persistent hypotony or flat anterior chamber after surgery.

[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.
