RESUMO
The study presents several years of observations concerning the application of cyclosporin in 2 cases of a very severe recurrent uveitis. The treatment by cyclosporin enabled to control the situation. In 1 case a cataract extraction was performed without complications. Both patients remain in observation of the out-patients department. The treatment with cyclosporin requires observation of some precautions (control of function of the liver, kidneys etc.). No complications after cyclosporin therapy were seen.

Personal observation comprise 495 operations of corneal transplantation in the period of 1972-1987. The best results (80-100 per cent successes) were achieved in cases of keratoconus, Groenuow's corneal dystrophy, Salzmann's nodular degeneration, pterygium, corneal dermoid and leukoma due to viral keratitis; fewer successful results (46 p.c.) were seen in leukomas caused by corneal burn. Corneal graft rejection occurred in 67 cases (13.5 p.c.).

The treatment of glaucoma in the actual state of science is as heretofore a surgical domain. The authoress presents--mainly on the basis of personal observations--the problems of treatment of this disease. Various classifications of glaucoma--from the surgeon's point of view--are discussed, the evaluation of actually performed most important antiglaucomatous operations and indications are presented. One of the best and most elegant antiglaucomatous operations is trabeculectomy. The hitherto existing surgical achievements must be however preserved because there are situations in which the older surgical methods are irreplaceable.
