Abstract

lieber den Einfluss von Temperatur und Jahreszeit auf den Ausbruch des akuten primären Glaukomanfalles.

Association between acute glaucoma and the weather and sunspot activity.

“…This apparent seasonal incidence has been confirmed in studies by Maynard (1908), Rohner (1927), Pillat (1933), and Weinstein (1934). Correlation between the incidence of acute glaucoma and various meteorological factors has been investigated by Steindorff (1902), Maynard (1908), Koike (1932), Bruckner (1941, Schorn (1947), Sautter and Daubert (1955), Brezowsky and Kastner (1958), and Luner and Vaskov'a (1964). The main positive findings in these studies, which were undertaken in different countries, are presented in Table 1 and show considerable differences, though there is the impression of association with cloudy weather and changing weather fronts.…”
