[Results of clinical trials of the OTM-01A ophthalmic tonometer]. / Rezul'taty klinicheskikh ispytanii avtomaticheskogo oftal'motonometra OTM-01A.

An automatic ophthalmotonometer OTM-01A and Goldman's tonometer were employed to measure intraocular pressure in 28 patients suffering from glaucoma (54 eyes) and 14 patients without ophthalmotonus impairment (28 eyes). Comparison of the data showed lack of significant differences in the tonometric readings in both observation groups, which permits recommending the tonometer OTM-01A for practical uses.

[Effectiveness of anaprilin in the treatment of glaucoma]. / Effektivnost' anaprilina v lechenii glaukomy.

Effects of 1% anaprilin instillations on intraocular pressure, ocular hydro- and hemodynamics, anterior chamber depth, pupil width, ocular functions, systemic arterial pressure and pulse rate were studied in 57 patients (94 eyes) with primary open-angle glaucoma. Anaprilin has shown a manifest hypotensive effect, explained by depression of aqueous humor production. The drug did not influence the visual functions, pupil width, or anterior chamber depth. A synergic effect on intraocular pressure was observed when anaprilin was combined with pilocarpine or clopheline.
