Hemophthalmos in patients with essential hypertension and diabetes mellitus was
treated by antioxidant agent Histochrome manufactured by the Pacific Institute
of Bioorganic Chemistry, Far Eastern Division of Academy of Sciences,
Vladivostok. The results were analyzed with reference to localization, volume,
and period elapsed since hemorrhage into the vitreous body and by hemophthalmos
index determined by biomicroscopy and echography of the vitreous body.
Histochrome was the most effective in fresh hemophthalmos with 1-2 point index.
Visual functions improved in patients with nonproliferative diabetic
retinopathy without hemorrhagic syndrome.
