Abstract

Frequency of recurrences of increase of intraocular pressure (IOP) in postoperative period of phacoemulsification (PE) using our own surgical techniques at combination of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and age-related cataracts was studied. The clinical material consisted of 83 patients (83 eyes) with developed or far-advanced stages of glaucoma, a rigid pupil, a dense nucleus, a lens subluxation of the 1st degree, which had antiglaucomatous operations. The use of our own methods of performing some stages of PE helped to reduced intraoperative trauma and frequency of recurrence of increase of IOP in period of observation to 3 years.

Keywords
