Abstract
Sodium hyaluronate (Healon) was used in follow-up surgery of the anterior segment. In addition to the uses of Healon already documented in the literature the author points out that very early synechiolysis with it can be beneficial especially in cases of distortion of the pupil after cataract extraction with insufficient cleaning of the vitreous. So far Healon has not caused any problems with regard to tissue compatibility, viscosity, resorption or its optical quality in the anterior chamber. The examples of secondary treatment given after injuries are intended to encourage the use of Healon in risky situations as a means of stabilizing the anterior chamber with a viscous fluid.
