[Some clinical aspects concerning diplopia after retinal detachment surgery with cryopexy and episcleral silastic sponge (author's transl)].

The aetiology of diplopia following retinal detachment surgery after the Lincoff-Custodis method is examined. Of 140 patients operated, 16 (i.e. 11.4%) developed diplopia. The authors believe that this diplopia is due to a fixation of the eyeball at the point of the silastic sponge placement. As responsible factors, which depend on the manner of sponge fixation and the size of the sponge, they regard: Alteration of the bulb curvature, shortening of the Tenon's capsule placed over the sponge, and changes in the conditions of muscular action.

[A contribution to the study of the correlation between the depth of the anterior chamber and the coefficient of aqueous humor outflow (author's transl)].

The depth of the anterior chamber was measured and the coefficient of the aqueous humor outflow was ascertained by means of tonography in 88 normal eyes. The mean value of the depth of the anterior chamber established was 2095+/-0.42 and the median value of the outflow coefficient of the aqueous humor was found to be 0.27+/-0.07. Both values showed a regular distribution. A statistically significant correlation was established between the two values. Expressed through a correlation coefficient this would mean in practice that the coefficient of aqueous humor outflow is affected up to 10 percent by the value of the depth of the anterior chamber.
