|January 1, 1992
Abstract:
A new surgical method for the treatment of narrow-angle glaucoma is suggested, consisting in the following: in sinuso-trabeculectomy the bridge cut from the deep layers of the sclera via a diagonal incision is transformed into triangular flaps that are charged into the anterior chamber for the iris retraction. The new geometry of incisions improves the efficacy of iris retraction and makes the surgery less traumatic.
