Trabeculotomy in pseudoexfoliation of the lens capsule.
Trabeculotomy was performed on 12 eyes of 11 patients with glaucoma associated with pseudoexfoliation of the lens capsule. Pressure was lowered in all eyes, in 10 eyes to 15 mmHg or less, 7 with no medication but 3 with medication. A subconjunctival bleb was present in 5 patients but was not necessary for a good result. These results suggest that the raised intraocular pressure which often occu...
متن کاملPseudoexfoliation material on posterior chamber intraocular lenses
The presence of pseudoexfoliation material on the surface of an intraocular lens (IOL) is a rare finding. We report a series of seven cases with different patterns of pseudoexfoliation material deposition on the posterior chamber IOLs, recognized 2-20 years after cataract surgery. Six patients had an IOL implanted in the capsular bag and one in the ciliary sulcus. Two patients had undergone pos...

متن کاملRacial incidence of pseudoexfoliation of the lens capsule.
The condition of pseudoexfoliation of the lens capsule seems common in some racial groups, and a high incidence of the condition has been reported in Scandinavia (Ladekarl, I965; Hansen and Sellevold, I968; Klouman, I967; Thomassen, I949; Backhaus and Lorentzen, I966; Horven, i966a), and in Greece (Joannides, Katsourakis, and Velissaropoulos, I96i). This raises the question whether pseudoexfoli...
متن کاملEffect of lens extraction in pseudoexfoliation of the lens capsule.
It is a matter of considerable clinical interest whether removal of the lens causes regression of pseudoexfoliation of the lens capsule. Before the paper by Dvorak-Theobald (I954), pseudoexfoliation of the lens capsule was often confused with true exfoliation, and it was suggested that lens extraction caused the condition to disappear (Irvine, I940; Gradle and Sugar, I947). After this paper app...
