Title: [Late results of pathogenetically-oriented surgical treatment in congenital glaucoma and problems of medical rehabilitation]. Author: Lakomkin VI, Ruzmetova NKh, Anikina EB. Journal: Vestn Oftalmol; 1994; 110(3):27-9. PubMed ID: 7810039. Abstract: Results of pathogenetical surgical treatment of congenital glaucoma were analyzed in late periods after surgery, from 1 to 17 years, in 105 patients (171 eyes). Ophthalmic tone normalization was attained in 87.5% of cases. High vision acuity was retained in 57.7% of cases. The principal causes of reduced central vision in process stabilization were astigmatism in 61.7%, amblyopia in 71.5%, strabismus in 59%, anisometropia in 22.8%. To improve vision acuity computer-aided pleoptic treatment was carried out in the postoperative period in 42 children (76 eyes). The efficacy of the method was 84.2%.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
