VER in primary open angle glaucoma

In 32 eyes of 16 patients with primary open angle glaucoma, we compared visual aculity, I.O.P., C/D ratio and central visual field with visually evoked cortical potentials [VECPS] or [VER] It has been found that, no apparent relation between the visual acuity and the latency of VECP, but there was a significant relation between the visual acuity and the amplitude. The rise in the I.O.P reduces the amplitude of the VEP. Marked alteration in amplitude and latency of VER have been demonstrated in patients with glaucomatous feild defects and large C/D ratio

Histopathological ocular changes of intraocular and intra-orbital retained aluminum foreign body [experimental comparative study]

An experimental histopathological comparative study on the effect of aluminium administered intra-orbitally and that administered intra occularly on the ocular tissues of rabbits was done. It has been found that aluminium particles administered intra orbitaly produced similar reactions to that occurred after administration of intra ocular ones. The mechanism by which intraorbital aluminium foreign body affected the intraocular structures was disussed
