This disease is a frequent cause of consultation in the eye area, constituting a challenge for the physician in the management and treatment, due to the high rate of postoperative recurrence that this holds. In the present study, we sought to compare the free conjunctival autograft versus rotary flap and able to establish the percentage of relapse using these surgical techniques in the treatment of primary pterygium.

The newborn is exposed to acquire an eye infection after passage through the birth canal. The purpose of this work is to identify the best prophylaxis. Gentamicin topical ocular compare traditional use in our environment from iodine-Povina in solution at 5 percent. We studied 80 mothers and their children, taking samples of the conjunctiva and vaginal secretions respectively, all births were attended in the obstetrics ward of the Vicente Corral Moscoso Hospital. Samples were Giemsa stained and alGram and plated on various culture media enriched, selective and differential oriented isolation of bacteria. Contamination was demonstrated in 55 percent of children, mostly due to Gram-positive Staphylococcus bacteria and fewer Gram-negative [E. Coli]. It was concluded that the povidone-iodine is more effective against gentamicin. Only one [2.5 per cent] of children who received povidone iodine presented microorganisms in the conjunctiva 24 hours after birth, compared to [10 percent] of the group receiving the ophthalmic gentamicin. Its effectiveness, easy access and low cost make povidone-iodine 5 percent in an option we recommend

In the study we have been able to determine that the vast majority of patients; before the diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy had a time of evolution of diabetes of about 10 to 14 years, of which at most corresponds to the type of background diabetic retinopathy. So the female is most affected unlike male. In terms of age the majority of patients with different types and grades of diabetic retinopathy were between 50 to 70 years; people with an urban origin, provision of basic health infrastructure, and also in most of the housework was engaged were affected to a greater percentage. It should be noted that these same patients had a significant percentage incomplete primary education, and a minimum percentage of higher education. The eye examination, both the left and the right eye are affected in similar proportions; 20/50 diopters results corresponded to more patients. When referring to the treatment, most patients suffering from Diabetes Mellitus, were on a diet, hence the importance of educating them properly to prevent complications of the disease; also oral diabetics are used by a significant number of patients for disease control in a lower percentage of patients found on insulin, and ultimately treatment to continue when diabetic retinopathy and eye damage is already installed it is evident is uses laser (photocoagulation) in better proportion as factors as cost, lack of ophthalmological control among others, does not allow access to this treatment in patients with poor socio-economic and cultural resources, unlike what happens in other countries
