A quantitative measure of visual field loss associated with kinetic perimetry in chronic open-angle glaucoma (COAG) is discussed. With this new technique an analysis of covariance is applied to a retrospective study of 41 COAG patients. It suggests that reduction of intraocular pressure may not be uniformly effective in controlling the progression of the disease.

METHODS: A retrospective descriptive study of 10 patients (10 eyes) diagnosed with chronic open-angle glaucoma and high myopia. Patients underwent trabeculectomy with Ologen® implant, without mitomycin, with follow-up at one, three, six and nine months. Follow-up assessment included refraction, intraocular pressure (IOP), presence of complications, and examination of the bleb and implant using ...

introduction: nowadays,  considerable developments  in  the field  of  radiotherapy have  been  achieved.  they  include  the  advances  made  in  the  equipments  and  treatment  planning  techniques  which  require  highly complex calculations. such achievements have made it possible to treat cancer patients not only  with  higher  radiation  dose  but  also  with  higher  precision  and  con...
