METHOD FOR PREDICTION OF FUNCTIONAL BLOCKAGE OF ANGLE OF ANTERIOR CHAMBER

摘要

FIELD: medicine.SUBSTANCE: invention can be used to predict a functional blockade of an angle of anterior chamber (AAC). Total AAC width is determined in 4 quadrants in angular degrees. Hyams test is conducted. If total AAC width is less than 45° with the negative Hyams test, the functional blockade of the angle of the anterior chamber is predicted.EFFECT: method provides early and precise prediction of the functional blockade of the angle of the anterior chamber in the patients with suspected glaucoma, including in narrow, however open ACC and normal intraocular pressure, by using a combined approach including determining ACC along the whole circular length and Hyams test results.2 ex
