  • Title: [A method of direct electrophoresis of the optic nerve in patients with far-advanced glaucoma].
    Author: Basinskiĭ SN, Sas'ko VI.
    Journal: Vestn Oftalmol; 1996; 112(1):8-10. PubMed ID: 8659078.
    Abstract:
    A new method for the treatment of diseases of the optic nerve and posterior segment of the eyeball is proposed: direct electrophoresis. Surgical treatment of 85 patients with far-advanced glaucoma in combination with the said method helped attain a reliable improvement of the vision acuity, of the total visual field, of critical frequency of flashing fusion, and of the linear velocity of the blood flow in the ocular artery in the majority of patients. This method holds good promise in the treatment of partial atrophies of the optic nerve of different origin, including the descending ones, and of dystrophic conditions of the posterior segment of the eye.
