title: Glaucoma capsulare in patients with open-angle glaucoma in Hungary.
abstract: The data of 403 inpatients with open-angle glaucoma were selected between 1977-1986, 155 had glaucoma capsulare (GC) and 248 suffered from primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). The incidence rate of GC was 38.4% in the total material. In the GC group, the peak of age distribution was between the ages 70-79 (45.8%). The male/female ratio of the total GC material was 1.67, that in POAG was 0.85. The difference between the two glaucoma groups was significant.
