Giant pads can grow on the cornea, occupying the central zone and inducing asymmetrical astigmatism with the inability to correct visual acuity. The treatment of giant pads should be progressive, starting from the simplest methods and proceeding to more complex ones.
Before investigating the angle configuration, the Van Chrik Schaffer method is used to estimate the depth of the anterior chamber. Evaluation is carried out when the patient is examined using a slit lamp.
This article presents a technique for trabeculectomy using laxative sutures for suturing the scleral flap. Initially, make a small L-shaped conjunctival incision length of 4 to 2 mm at a distance of 1-2 mm from the limb.
Syndromes, accompanied by glaucoma, are divided into two main categories: primary and secondary. Primary, in which glaucoma and the causes of increased resistance to outflow and increased intraocular pressure are unknown.
Irradiation of the iris and closure of the anterior chamber angle due to the pupillary block lead to a sharp increase in intraocular pressure and the development of secondary glaucoma in patients with uveitis.
The purpose 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 vision organ throughout his life
To phacogenic open-angle glaucomas include three different diagnoses with similar clinical symptoms. Facial glaucoma, glaucoma lens masses and phacogenous uveitis (FGU) develop with intraocular inflammation, an abnormal lens and with increased intraocular pressure, but in the future, as a rule, hypotension develops.
In most cases, antiglaucomatous filtering operations are effective in reducing intraocular pressure, are safe, but not always flawless.
Hypotonic maculopathy is a condition in which folds of choroid and / or retina are formed with involvement of the macular area, leading to a decrease in vision against the background of hypotension.
Depending on the etiology in the case of flat chambers, high or low intraocular pressure is recorded. The doctor sets the diagnosis based on the detection of a flat or shallow chamber in the postoperative period, a clinical history, examination data and the level of intraocular pressure.
