[Trabeculectomy or Goniotrepanation -- a comparison of the postoperative course (author's transl)].

No significant differences could be determined postoperatively between trabeculectomy and goniotrepanation. However, cases of flattened anterior chambers and choroidal detachments were less frequent after goniotrepanation than after trabeculectomy.

[Effect of timolol and acetazolamide on intraocular hypertension after intracapsular lens extraction with alpha-chymotrypsin (author's transl)].

After intracapsular lens extraction with alpha-chymotrypsin three groups of 14 patients were formed. The first group was given Timolol 0.25% 2 x 1 drops, the second acetazolamide in sustained release form 1 x 500 mg and the third served as control.

[The role of bulb echography in the diagnosis of malignant melanoma of the choroid (author's transl)].

The combined A- and B-scan echography reliably separates intraocular melanoma from other intraocular lesion. This is showed by the analysis of 79 cases with clinically certain or possible melanoma during the last three years. In all 33 enucleated eyes the histology proved the echographic diagnosis of melanoma to be correct.
