As statistics show, every third person in the world has poor eyesight. However, with some vision problems (astigmatism, myopia, hyperopia) everything can be corrected with the help of special gymnastics.
The goal of monitoring patients with primary open-angle glaucoma is to maintain or improve the condition. The doctor and the patient are interested in the functional preservation of the patient's visual organ throughout his life.
Iris bombardment and closure of the anterior chamber angle due to pupillary block lead to a sharp increase in intraocular pressure and the development of secondary glaucoma in patients suffering from uveitis.
Several methods are used for cyclodestruction: contactless transscleral cyclophotocoagulation (CPC), cyclocryotherapy, contact transscleral CPC, transpupillary CPC and endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation.
This article presents a technique for trabeculectomy using relaxing sutures to close the scleral flap. Initially, a small L-shaped conjunctival incision, 4 mm by 2 mm long, is made 1-2 mm from the limbus.
Glaucoma drainage devices - liquid or tubular shunts - are used to reduce intraocular pressure in patients with uncontrolled glaucoma in whom fistulizing surgery using antimetabolites has already failed or has little chance of success.
Trabeculectomy helps reduce intraocular pressure because it creates a fistula between the inner parts of the eye and the subconjunctival space during the operation, creating a filtration pad.
The pulsed dual neodymium:yttrium:aluminum garnet (YAG) laser was used by Latina in 1998 for trabeculoplasty. It was designed to selectively target pigmented tissue and minimize side effects.
