METHOD FOR SURGICAL GONIOPUNCTURE FOLLOWING NON-PENETRATING DEEP SCLERECTOMY

摘要

FIELD: medicine.SUBSTANCE: invention can be used for performing a goniopuncture of trabeculo-Descemet's membrane following a non-penetrating deep sclerectomy (NPDS) if observing disturbed transparency of a cornea or fluid flow of an anterior chamber. The trabeculo-Descemet's membrane is micro-perforated from an angle of the anterior chamber within a projection of a postoperative intrascleral cavity by means of a non-traumatic boomerang needle 10-0, needle bend 3/8. The needle is pricked into the cornea at 3-3.5 mm from a limb with its distal end delivered towards an opened portion of the Descemet's membrane. A needle tip is brought through the cornea and further and advanced along a trajectory aligned with its flexion; the needle tip perforates the trabeculo-Descemet's membrane.EFFECT: method enables achieving the stable normalisation of intraocular pressure following a minimum surgical intervention.1 ex
