Ultrasonic cyclodialysis in glaucoma surgery in aphakia
1993
: The authors present the results of a new method for surgical treatment of aphakic eye glaucoma with the use of low-frequency ultrasound. The suggested surgery, ultrasonic cyclodialysis, was carried out in 15 patients with glaucoma on the aphakic eyes. A follow-up of 6 months has demonstrated a stable normalization of intraocular pressure. The mechanism of the hypotensive effect of the operation is explained largely by improvement of fluid discharge and a certain inhibition of the chamber humor production. The authors emphasize the sparing nature of the operation and a serene postoperative course.
