[Laser puncture combined with drug therapy in the treatment of primary corneal stromal dystrophy]

MaÄchuk IuF, Orlovskaia LE, Mal'-Alla DR.

A protocol of multiple-modality treatment has been developed, making use of laser puncture by stimulating infrared laser and drugs-aqueous 4% taufon and polygluquine taufon and artificial tears. The treatment proved to be highly effective: vision acuity stabilized, lacrimal production increased, and erosive cornea epithelialized.
