title: Vitrectomy lens for examination of the optic disk in young children with glaucoma.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To examine the optic disk in infants and young children with glaucoma after the administration of anesthesia, a lens designed for vitrectomy surgery was used to obtain magnified stereoscopic images of the optic disk.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Excellent visualization of the optic disk was obtained with our method. Comparison of optic disk appearance is facilitated by using an inexpensive lens designed for vitrectomy surgery.
