It is 30 years since Krwawicz presented a new method of cataract surgery at low temperature. This operation was not only widely accepted, but also showed the possibilities of the use of low temperature in medicine. It soon became apparent that such methods might be helpful in treating a number of eye diseases. This was beginning of a new branch of ophthalmology, cryoophthalmology. The paper presents its development, its position in ophthalmology and the latest achievements. After the 30 years, cryoophthalmology has preserved its importance and its constant evolution; it remains the subject of investigations of many research centres.
自克瓦维茨提出低温白内障手术新方法以来已有30年。这种手术不仅被广泛接受，还展示了低温在医学中的应用可能性。很快就发现，此类方法可能有助于治疗多种眼部疾病。这就是眼科一个新分支——冷冻眼科的开端。本文介绍了其发展历程、在眼科中的地位以及最新成果。30年后，冷冻眼科依然重要且不断发展；它仍是许多研究中心的研究课题。
