Cytological diagnosis of phacolytic glaucoma utilizing millipore filtration of the aqueous.

Abstract

ALTHOUGH the Millipore filtration technique of cytological analysis has been largely neglected in clinical ophthalmology (Goldberg, Erozan, Duke, and Frost, 1965; Jarrett, Goldberg, and Schulze, 1966), it can be of practical assistance in diagnosis and therapy. Documentation of this usefulness is provided by the following report of morgagnian cataract with phacolytic glaucoma.
