[Distraneurin (Chlormethiazol) as an anaesthetic for high-risk cases in ophthalmology (author's transl)].
A new anaesthesia, through Chlormethiazol i.v. is described, which is especially used in cataract (lens) operations. There is no excitation during induction and the depth of anaesthesia (stage) depends on dosage-time ratio. Recovery is calm without undesirable side-effects. The intraocular pressure is significantly diminished during anaesthesia.
