title: [Ocular vasospasm. 4: Clinical examples].
abstract: The presumed ocular vasospasms provoke a variety of symptoms. Out of the large spectrum, two typical cases are described. The first case is a patient that developed visual field defect under psychological stress conditions. A drug therapy relieved the patient from the symptoms. The second case is a patient with a normal-tension-glaucoma. The treatment of the vasospasm improved the visual field markedly.
