[Results of laser photocoagulation in diabetic retinopathy with maculopathy].

Examined were 91 eyes with non-proliferative and proliferative retinopathy with coexisting maculopathy in 51 patients in whom segmental or retinal pan-photocoagulation were performed. The period of observation--3 to 4.5 years. Stabilization of the pathological process was observed in 37.3 p.c. of cases, 54.9 p.c. of patients showed further deterioration and 7.6 p.c. loss of vision. The most frequent cause of deterioration was the progression of the macular lesions (72 p.c.), a smaller number of cases (28 p.c.) was due to other changes.

[Value of the ERG in the "pattern" type (PERG) in the diagnosis of glaucoma].

The authors examined 14 persons (20 eyes) aged 51-77 years with open angle glaucoma and 3 persons (5 eyes) aged 37-59 years who were suspected for this condition. The control group consisted of 23 healthy persons (30 eyes) aged 14-40 years. The PERG results were statistically worked up using the t-Student test. Full clinical examinations and PERG were performed by means of the UTAS E-1000 system of LKC (USA) production according to modified by the authors method of May and coworkers. In the observed glaucoma group the authors revealed a statistically significant reduction of the interpeak values of the PERG in comparison with the control group; this points to a lesion of the ganglion cells in the course of this disease. The modified and adapted for the UTAS E-1000 method of May and coworkers and the applied system of conductors ensured the optimal reception of the PERG signals i.e. the maximal amplitude with minimal disturbances.
