[Incidence of conjunctival and corneal changes in dialysis patients]
Abstract:
Deposits of calcium salts in the conjunctivas and corneas of 72 patients showed a statistically significant correlation to the duration of hemodialysis. The deposition of calcium salts is not influenced by other signs of disturbed calcium metabolism (Ca-PO4 product, alkalic phosphatase) or the patient's age.
