title: [Use of transconjunctival electroimpulse therapy in diseases of the optic nerve].
abstract: Seventy-one patients with optic nerve abnormalities of different origin were treated using transconjunctival electrostimulation of the eyeball with electrodes positioned in the ciliary body projection. A positive effect was attained, particularly manifest in the acute period of optic nerve diseases (neuritis, anterior ischemic neuropathy) and in involvement of the optic nerve in glaucoma patients. The results were assessed from the principal parameters of visual function, intraocular pressure, data of hydrodynamic and electrophysiological studies.
