title: [The expediency of peripheral iridectomy in the surgical treatment of open-angle glaucoma].
abstract: Results of surgical interventions in two groups of patients with open-angle glaucoma are analysed and compared. In group one (51 patients) antiglaucomatous operation was made without peripheral iridectomy and in group II (46 patients)--together with the latter. Immediate results after operations on occasion of open-angle glaucoma made without peripheral iridectomy have shown a good hypotensive effect, preservation and a certain improvement of visual functions in the majority of the cases, significant weakening of inflammatory reaction in the eye in early postoperative period as compared with results after operations made together with peripheral iridectomy.
