Abstract
The anterior chamber paracentesis has its history about 4 centuries long in the ophthalmic operations. Author recently applied this method to 31 clinical cases consisting of hypopyon, hyphema, juvenile cataract and foreign body in anterior chamber. Attempt was made via the subconjunctival route on the cases of hyphema and lens material in the anterior chamber, in contrast with the ordinary corneal limbus puncture on the discission of anterior lens capsule, or irrigation of hypopyon. Application of paracentesis in my series was selected on the cases of blood over a half of anterior chamber, and large amount of hypopyon, etc., and the favorable rasults were achieved.
