title: [Primary therapy of acute angle-block glaucoma].
abstract: Primary therapeutic measures in 94 eyes suffering from acute angle-closure glaucoma were assessed in a retrospective study. Sixty-eight eyes were treated with acetazolamide, timolol, and pilocarpine. The remaining 26 eyes were treated with acetazolamide and timolol only. The therapy without pilocarpine proved to be significantly more effective.
