1923A. Duane Fuchs's Text-Bk. Ophthalmol. xviii. 372 If the observer, standing to one side, holds the ophthalmoscopic mirror almost at right angles to the patient's line of sight, he can see deposits and adhesions in the angle of the anterior chamber, which ordinarily are invisible because hidden by the limbus (Salzmann). Such an examination is called gonioscopy. 1925M. U. Troncoso in Amer. Jrnl. Ophthal. VIII. 433/2 Hoping to obtain a clear, unobstructed view of the angle [of the anterior chamber of the eye] in all directions and a sufficient magnification, I have devised and perfected a new instrument, the gonioscope, which is a microscope and a periscope combined. Ibid., The term ‘Gonioscopy’ suggested by the author in 1921, has been adopted. Ibid. 445/2 A second gonioscopic examination two weeks afterwards detected a total peripheral synechia all around the limbus. 1951H. S. Sugar Glaucomas ii. 27 By applying a prismatic contact lens (gonioscopic lens) to the eye, we are able to see the structures of the chamber angle. 1961Lancet 22 July 166/2 The implant should not be inserted until the eye has recovered from this operation and gonioscopy shows that the desired effect has been achieved. 1961Ibid. 26 Aug. 467/1 Optical methods of examination [of the eye] (chiefly the slit⁓lamp microscope and the gonioscope). |
