Purpose
We demonstrate clinical material collected during several years, which illustrates the possibilities of immunotherapy in intravitreous hemorrhages. Material and methods Immunotherapy was applied in 172 persons, Rh-positive in 174 eyes with intravitreal hemorrhages of a various etiology. The therapy consisted of injecting preparations containing IgG anti RhD antibodies into the vitreous. Results Visual acuity improvement has been obtained in 77,6% of eyes. Conclusions Summing up the effects of immunotherapy of hemorrhages into the vitreous body, it is necessary to stress the simplicity of performance of the procedure, its insignificant invasions and security resulting from the application of natural, human immunoglobulin. keywords:
