[Orbital varices].

The purpose of this study was to point out a case with orbital venous abnormalities at the left eye, associated with varices of the legs. The clinical picture of this case was: intermittent exophthalmos, venous malformations at the level of the lids and episclera, elevated ocular pressure. All this signs reveal an abnormality at the level of venous wall, indicating a constitutional weakness of the venous system. The case was investigated by imagistic methods: ultrasound examination, Doppler -ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging. According to the facts offered by clinical and imagistic investigation this case can be included into the first type of orbital varices, associated with secondary glaucoma provoked by an elevated episcleral venous pressure.

[Imagery in secondary glaucomas diagnosis].

The purpose of this study was to present the actual performances of the imagistic techniques for the complete investigation of secondary glaucoma. For this aim there were selected patients from the Ophthalmologic Clinic Cluj-Napoca. They have been submitted to ultrasound investigations, fluorescein angiography and magnetic resonance imaging techniques. Ultrasound techniques: A-scan, B-scan and Doppler allow to track and discriminate the ocular and orbital diseases which can offer the bases of correct diagnosis in secondary glaucoma. The color Doppler assures a good visualization of neovascularization, tumoral vascularization, arterio-venous abnormalities. Magnetic resonance imaging completes the data obtained by ultrasound and fluorescein angiographique techniques. The imagistic techniques associated with the clinical features offer the bases of the diagnostic and proper therapy in secondary glaucoma.
