title: [Analysis of the results of the treatment of patients with open-angle glaucoma].
abstract: Evaluated were the results of a conservative and surgical treatment in 478 patients (870 eyes) after 5 and 10 years of observation. Taken into the account were: the visual acuity, visual field and the condition of the lens. The comparison of results of the conservative and surgical treatment showed that better results had been obtained in eyes treated surgically. The visual field did not indicated any statistically essential differences at any stage of observation. Much more advanced deterioration of the visual acuity was revealed in surgically treated eyes; this was probably caused by a progressive opacification of the lens.
