New Glaucoma surgery improving Anterior Aqueous Drainage
Introduction Anti-glaucoma medicines, laser surgery and incisional surgery all seek to lower the intraocular pressure (IOP). Incisional surgery is indicated when medical treatment and/or laser surgery have failed, are likely to fail or are not available or practical. The most standard surgical procedure is trabeculectomy (or some variation thereof e.g. ExPRESS shunt): aqueous is shunted from th...
متن کاملWhere anterior segment and posterior segment surgery meet
THIS year’s EURETINA meeting included a joint EURETINA/ESCRS symposium on where anterior segment and posterior segment surgery meet. Commencing the session, co-chairman, Gisbert Richard MD, University Medical Centre Hamburg-Eppendorf, described a combined surgery procedure for cataract patients who require pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for such indications as epiretinal membranes, macular holes a...
متن کاملTHE EFFECTS OF ANTERIOR DISCECTOMY AND INTERPOSITION AL IMPLANT UPON LUMBAR MOTION SEGMENT STABILITY
The cadaver spine motion segment behavior under torsional load was evaluated with the disc intact, with partial anterior discectomy and with spacer insertion. The results of this study explain how anterior lumbar discectomy and interbody fusion (ALIF) affects the torsional stability of the motion segment. The pseudarthrosis rate of the anterior lumbar discectomy and interbody fusion (ALIF)...
متن کاملRefractive Error and Anterior Segment Parametric Changes in Patients with Posterior Capsular Opacification after Nd: YAG Laser Posterior Capsulotomy
Background and Objective: Cataract is one of the most common causes of blindness in the world, and posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is the most common complication after cataract surgery. Nd: YAG laser posterior capsulotomy is a standard method for the treatment of PCO. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Yas laser capsulotomy on anterior segment parameters and lenticu...
متن کاملTissue response to aqueous drainage in a functioning Molteno implant.
The tissue reaction to a functioning Molteno implant has been studied by light microscopy and by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The material was obtained from an aphakic 83-year-old human eye which required enucleation because of intractable bullous keratopathy, despite well controlled intraocular pressure. The tissue response around the silicone rubber tube was that of simple f...
