pubmed-article:7185013 | pubmed:abstractText | The effect of subconjunctivally injected hyaluronidase on ocular hydrodynamics was tested in 30 living human normal and 30 open-angle glaucoma eyes. It was found that after 1,500 TU of hyaluronidase injected subconjunctivally, the outflow resistance was significantly lowered: 34% in normal eyes, on the average; and by about 57% in the glaucomatous eyes. The possibility of either a higher amount of hyaluronic acid in the glaucomatous eyes or a normal amount of hyaluronic acid in the presence of compromised trabeculum is discussed. Clinical applications and further research are advocated. | lld:pubmed |
