[The effectiveness of combining scleroplasty with ultrasonic activation of the filtering zone of the anterior chamber angle in progressive myopia].
A new method for treatment of progressive myopia is developed that includes simultaneous action on both components of the leading pathogenetic link of myopization: "intraocular pressure--durable properties of the sclera". The method includes a combination of sclera-enhancing operations (administration of auto- or allotissue into the sub-Tenon's space of the posterior segment of the eye) with microhypotensive action (ultrasonic activation of the filtration zone of the anterior chamber angle). A comparison of results after 30 operations of common retrosclerosealing with those after 30 operations of retrosclerosealing in combination with acoustic hypotensive action (the follow-up period--4 years) has shown that in patients with acoustic hypotension the level of intraocular pressure fell by 2.9 mm Hg, this being 1.2 mm Hg higher than after common retrosclerosealing. In case of common retrosclerosealing myopia progressed in 10% of patients and in its combination with acoustic hypotensive action further progression of myopia was not recorded.
