  • Title: [Direct ciliary body coagulation as a treatment for various forms of glaucoma (author's transl)].
    Author: Steinbach PD, Nover A.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1978 Jan; 172(1):39-42. PubMed ID: 628181.
    Abstract:
    At the University eye clinic in Mainz a new method was carried out on 40 patients to coagulate the ciliary body whereby this was laid open and directly coagulated. In the post operative stage within the first 4 weeks a further increase of pressure could be observed in 3 cases only. The other patients, who have been observed up to 15 months, did not show any further increase of pressure and are well. This operation method is commendable especially in the cases of hemorhagic and absolute glaucoma.
