ABSTRACT
This is a preliminary report of Eales' disease study (EDS). Compilation of two years data shows that combined xenon are photocoagulation and peripheral cryotherapy has beneficial effects in treatment of Eales' disease with grade II and grade III retinopathy. In very advanced stage of the disease (grade IV retinopathy) the treatment has no beneficial effects and untreated also it leads to vitreous haemorrhage and traction retinal detachment. The Eales' disease study (EDS) is still an on-going project and recruitment of the patients is continuing. Over another year we hope to have a larger number of patients, accumulate enough data and cover a longer follow-up period to substantiate these preliminary findings.
