[Intraoperative prevention of bleeding into the anterior chamber in hemorrhagic glaucoma using viscoelastic substances].

The anterior chamber tamponade with Healon and 2.5% solution of hydroxymethyl-cellulose has been applied in 10 patients, aged 9-65 years, during antiglaucomatous surgery connected with interscleral dislocation of iris. The tamponade prevented the rupture of blood vessels of iris.

[Effectiveness of intrascleral peripheral iridencleisis in extreme glaucomatous conditions].

The intrascleral peripheral iridencleisis was performed in 42 cases of severe advanced primary, secondary and developmental glaucoma. Normalization of the intraocular pressure was attained in 71.4% of eyes.

[Late results of intrascleral peripheral iridencleisis].

Intrascleral peripheral iridencleisis was performed in 50 eyes with primary glaucoma in persons aged 41-71 years. The results of operation were evaluated after 5-10 years. The intraocular pressure did not exceed 21 mm Hg in 88% of eyes after the surgery alone and in 4% after an additional topical treatment.
