Peripheral iridectomy in closed-angle glaucoma.
PERIPHERAL iridectomy has become an accepted method of treating closedangle glaucoma. During the last 4 years we have performed this operation on more than seventy eyes and the results have convinced us that this is one of the safest and most successful of all operations for glaucoma provided that the cases are properly selected. It is the ideal operation for early cases of closed-angle glaucom...

متن کاملEvaluation of laser iridectomy in angle-closure glaucoma: provocative tests.
An argon laser iridectomy was performed on 18 eyes of 14 patients with closed-angle glaucoma. The intraocular pressure (IOP) was controlled in all but one eye within normal limits. Variable amounts of pigment were found on gonioscopy in all cases. The mydriasis test was positive in one eye (5.5%) after homatropine and in 5 eyes (28%) after tropicamide drops. 80% of the positive results occurred...
