    Author: Aviner Z.
    Journal: Ann Ophthalmol; 1975 Jun; 7(6):859-61. PubMed ID: 1147514.
    Abstract:
    To maintain the patency of the cleft created by the cyclodialysis operation, a trapezoid scleral pedicle is dissected near the limbus and then introduced through a sclerotomy and the cyclodialysis cleft into the anterior chamber angle. The method is indicated for treatment of chronic aphakic glaucoma and has been found useful in treatment of African patients.
