A method of performing peripheral iridectomy through a corneal incision is described. Of the fifty patients reviewed, there were no immediate postoperative complications. In the follow-up period the incidence of lens opacities associated with visual loss was 16% and 21% in the prophylactic and therapeutic groups respectively. The percentage of posterior synechiae in the prophylactic group was 16%. Ninety-three percent of patients had a visual acuity of 6/12 or better at the end of the follow-up period. When compared with the results of previous surveys, the method is as safe as the ab externo approach. The technique avoids bleeding and leaves the bulbar conjunctiva undamaged and available for any subsequent drainage procedure.
描述了一种通过角膜切口进行周边虹膜切除术的方法。在接受评估的50例患者中，术后均无即刻并发症。在随访期间，预防性治疗组和治疗性治疗组中与视力丧失相关的晶状体混浊发生率分别为16%和21%。预防性治疗组的后粘连发生率为16%。93%的患者在随访期结束时视力达到6/12或更好。与以往的调查结果相比，该方法与经外路手术一样安全。该技术避免了出血，且未损伤球结膜，可供后续任何引流手术使用。
