[Ophthalmological anaesthesia in old age; 120 cases (author's transl)].

AMong 149 old ophthalmological patients over 70 years old, 29 patients did not undergo a general anaesthesia. The other 120 patients underwent 148 operations under general anaesthesia. The anaesthetic techniques came from neuroleptanalgesia. The results are quite good from a surgical view/point so that now we don't to refuse old people for an ophthalmological surgery under general anaesthesia any longer.
