Abstract
The action of calcium gluconate is similar to that of calcium chloride but less toxic. In powder form it is tasteless and nonirritating to the intestinal tract. Subcutaneous injections do not irritate the tissues. It has been found to be very effective in phlyctenular disease and in certain types of uveitis, but in the allergic eye conditions the results of this therapy have not been consistent. The results are given in 24 cases of inflammatory ocular disease. Read before the Chicago Ophthalmological Society, February 20, 1933.
