الوصف: | Summary 1 Megalocornea is undoubtedly a definite clinical entity, but like buphthalmos is subject to raised intra-ocular tension. 2 Only 25 per cent. of cases of megalocornea are so involved, whereas in 100 per cent. of buphthalmos the intra-ocular tension is raised. 3 This increase in intra-ocular tension is a very important complication and must be watched for in megalocornea in adult life. 4 In one case it occurred at the age of 30 years, but in the oldest case it did not appear until about 60 years of age. 5 This complication appears 3 times as com- monly in females as in males. 6 Senile cataract is a further complication and the extraction of this type of cataract appears to be followed frequently by spontaneous retinal detachment. |
