DIAGNOSTIC METHOD FOR SECONDARY GLAUCOMA IN PATIENTS WITH VASCULAR CORNEAL LEUKOMA

摘要

FIELD: medicine.SUBSTANCE: invention can be used for diagnosing secondary glaucoma is the patients suffering vascular corneal leukoma. A method involves an optical coherent tomography of an anterior eye segment (OCT AES), an ultrasonic biomicroscopy (UBM) followed by measuring a critical frequency of flashing phosphene extinguishing (CFPE) with a echo biometry. If the OCT AES and UBM findings show the presence of iris-corneal adhesions with a closed angle of the anterior chamber through one or more quadrants, the CFPE values are less than 40 Hz, and the echo biometry shows an increase of an anterio-posterior axis by more than 1.0 mm for one year, secondary glaucoma is diagnosed.EFFECT: method provides the accurate and objective diagnosis in the patients of the given group with the poorly transparent cornea having irregular curvature, shape and turgor.2 ex
