Gaucher's disease is the most common lysosomal storage disorder due to a deficiency of glukocerebrosidase activity. It leads to an accumulation of glukosylceramide within the cells of the the reticuloendothelial system. Gaucher's disease is divided into three subtypes based on clinical symptoms.

Purpose: To examine the influence of intraocular pressure (IOP) decreasing after trabeculectomy on the retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFL) in glaucoma in the youth.

Several mutations of CYP1B1 gene, a member of cytochrome P450 gene family, have been associated with occurrence of primary congenital glaucoma. The aim of presented work was to investigate CYP1B1 gene exon III mutations in 72 unrelated Polish patients with primary congenital glaucoma (C), juvenile glaucoma (J) and juvenile glaucoma suspects (P). In one patient we have detected homozygous duplication of 10bp at nucleotide 8046 resulting in synthesis of truncated protein, first found among the polish population.

Purpose: To compare anatomical and functional state of eyeballs after congenital cataract extraction and heparin-surface-modified PMMA (HSM-PMMA) or PMMA implanted lenses and to conclude, which type of implants is more advantageous in young patients.

Materials And Methods: 42 eyes of 30 children at the age of 3-16 years with congenital or developmental cataract after extraction and IOL implantation: I group--HSM-PMMA lenses in 24 eyes, and PMMA lenses in 18 eyes--II group. Mean age in the I group was 6 years and in the II group 8 years, p = 0.

The aim of congenital glaucoma treatment is to preserve visual function of children's eyes. There are three forms of congenital glaucoma: primary congenital glaucoma of infants, children and the youth, glaucoma in dysgenesis of anterior segment of the eyeballs and glaucoma in congenital systemic diseases. Pharmacotherapy is indicated during preparation for surgical treatment, as an adjunct following surgical procedures and as a protection of retinal and optic nerve function.

Unlabelled: The diagnosis of the open angle glaucoma in myopic eyes remains one of the major problems, as the changes of the optic head in myopia may be similar to glaucomatous changes. The aim of the study was to analyse biomorphometric parameters of the optic nerve head in myopic eyes with glaucoma with scanning laser ophthalmoscope from Laser Diagnostic Technologies Inc. There was 29 children examined and among them 12 children with glaucoma and myopia as a study group (I) and 17 children with myopia as a control group (II).
