  • Title: [The glaucoma operation in younger patients (author's transl)].
    Author: Polychronakos D.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1979 Aug; 175(2):232-5. PubMed ID: 522416.
    Abstract:
    The author puts forward various arguments to support the view that patients under 50 years suffering from glaucoma should undergo surgery immediately, even if their elevated intraocular pressure could be managed medically. He presents the results of operations on 51 patients aged from 31 to 50, which can be considered more than satisfactory.
