The results of 257 combined, pathogenically oriented operations were analyzed in 181 patients with cataract concurrent with open-angle glaucoma (OAG). A system of pathogenically oriented combined surgical interventions was shown to be highly effective in patients with cataract concurrent with OAG. The proposed procedure for intraoperative determination of the retention of intraocular fluid allows a pathogenically oriented antiglaucomatous component of combined surgery to be chosen in patients with cataract and OAG. Increased visual acuity and stable stabilization of the glaucomatous process were achieved in all cases during a follow-up of less than 3 years. LA: Russian
