Modified Krasnov's iridocycloretraction for aphakic glaucoma

Z Aviner. Ann Ophthalmol. 1975 Jun.

Abstract

To maintain the patency of the cleft created by the cyclodialysis operation, a trapezoid scleral pedicle is dissected near the limbus and then introduced through a sclerotomy and the cyclodialysis cleft into the anterior chamber angle. The method is indicated for treatment of chronic aphakic glaucoma and has been found useful in treatment of African patients.
