This article is written for those of us who prefer to use nonabsorbable surgical (silk) sutures instead of absorbable surgical (gut) sutures. The difficulty and danger which is sometimes encountered in removing corneoscleral sutures led me to seek a safer and easier method. First, the use of forceps was eliminated in favor of using scissors alone. For this purpose very fine-bladed cuticle (manicuring) scissors were found satisfactory except in the case of a very apprehensive and uncooperative patient. Next was the attempt to untie the suture knot. This was found easy to do with jeweler's fine pointed forceps except in the case of very tight or deeply buried knots. However, noting the ease with which the sutures could be grasped with these forceps, I conceived the idea of scissors which would give the same feel and ease of handling— delicate narrow-bladed ones with spring action handle. Vannas (straight) capsulotomy scissors

The complications of corneal infections are very easily forgotten now that antibiotics and corticosteroids are a common therapeutic regimen. It is well, therefore, to reemphasize that so-called antibiotic-resistant corneal infections may be due to fungi. Although the reported cases are relatively few, an increasing number have appeared in the recent literature. Reports by Ley and Sanders 1 ; Roberts 2 ; Schardt, Unsworth, and Hayes 3 ; Ziobrowski, 4 and Veirs and Davis 5 have illustrated the difficulties in management of fungus infections. Six enucleated eyes received in the Pathology Department of the Kresge Eye Institute since September, 1955, proved to have fungi demonstrable in corneal abscesses on histologic examination. In only one instance was clinical evidence of fungus infection obtained prior to enucleation. The six cases are herein reported as follows: Report of Cases Case 1. —This 59-year-old white man gave a history of getting sawdust and bark in his left eye
角膜感染的并发症很容易被遗忘,现在抗生素和皮质类固醇是一种常见的治疗方案。因此,有必要再次强调,所谓的抗生素耐药性角膜感染可能是由真菌引起的。虽然报告的病例相对较少,但在最近的文献中出现了越来越多的病例。莱伊和桑德斯报道1;罗伯茨2;Schardt, Unsworth, and Hayes 3;Ziobrowski, 4, Veirs和Davis, 5已经说明了真菌感染管理的困难。自1955年9月以来,在克雷斯格眼科研究所病理部接受的6只去核眼的组织学检查证明在角膜脓肿中有明显的真菌。只有一例在去核前获得真菌感染的临床证据。现将6例病例报告如下:病例报告这名59岁的白人男子说,他的左眼有木屑和树皮

The metabolism of the lens under normal and pathological conditions has been studied extensively, and various factors which produce opacities of the lens are known. The changes leading to senile cataract in human beings are not understood, however (for review of the literature see Bellows, 2 Friedenwald et al., 5 and Nordmann 15 ). The lens does not have its own blood supply and is, for its nutrition, dependent on the aqueous humor. It seems reasonable to assume that changes in flow or composition of the aqueous humor can produce changes in the normal metabolism of the lens, leading to opacities. An investigation of the rate of aqueous flow with a comparison between normal human eyes and eyes with cataract would, therefore, be of interest. Different methods for determining the rate of aqueous flow in human eyes have been developed. The tonographic method shows an uncertainty in the estimate of aqueous
人们对晶状体在正常和病理状态下的代谢进行了广泛的研究,并了解了引起晶状体混浊的各种因素。然而,导致人类老年性白内障的变化尚不清楚(文献回顾见Bellows, 2 Friedenwald et al., 5 and Nordmann 15)。晶状体没有自己的血液供应,其营养依赖于房水。似乎有理由认为房水的流动或组成的改变会导致晶状体正常代谢的改变,从而导致混浊。因此,通过比较正常人的眼睛和白内障患者的眼睛来研究水的流动速率是有意义的。测定人眼水流速的不同方法已经发展起来。色相法在水溶液的估计中存在不确定度
