Material and methods. In the course of the study, the transparency of all polyester matrices of various thicknesses was evaluated by the width of the scattering angle of a helium-neon laser beam with a wavelength of 632.8 nm. The mechanical properties of the matrices (only 5 microns thick) and amniotic membrane (AM) (strength, elongation at break, modulus of elasticity) were studied under their uniaxial tension on a universal installation. Biodegradation was evaluated for all matrices from PLG, PLC and PCL – on 18 rabbits (12 eyes). The matrices were transplanted and sewn onto intact corneas. The biodegradation of the matrices was evaluated on the 3rd, 10th, 21st and 30th days after surgery. Results. The optical and mechanical properties of matrices made of polylactide-glycolide (PLG), polylactide-caprolactone (PLC) and poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) were studied during the study. The terms of biodegradation of matrices from PLC with a thickness of 5 microns were about 30 days. Conclusion. Taking into account the optimal combination of strength, elasticity, elasticity and transparency, the most acceptable for use as a carrier for transplantation of cultured LESC in order to eliminate limbal insufficiency is a matrix of PLC with a thickness of 5 microns.

To study of quantitative and qualitative morphometric characteristics of the anterior chamber (AC) depth, lens thickness (LT), corneal-iris angle in young patients with high axial hyperopia planning refractive surgery. Material and methods. The main group – 35 patients (70 eyes) with high axial hyperopia. Inclusion criteria: absence of ophthalmic and systemic somatic pathology. The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) is from 0.7 to 1.0. The comparison group included 35 patients (70 eyes) with primary closure of the anterior chamber angle (ACA) in combination with high hyperopia. Inclusion criteria: the presence of functional block of the ACA in at least 2 quadrants, the absence of signs of glaucomatous optic neuropathy. BCVA – from 0.6 to 0.9. All patients underwent gonioscopy of the ACA in 4 quadrants, optical coherence tomography, assessment of morphometric parameters of the anterior segment of the eyes. Results. The analysis of morphometric parameters revealed statistically significant differences in patients of the main group relative to the comparison group: in the AC depth in the central zone – 2.8 ± 0.3 vs. 2.4 ± 0.25 mm; LT – 4.0 ± 0.35 vs. 4.5 ± 0.3 mm; ACA width – 19.6 ± 4.4° vs. 13.1±5.1°; AC depth in the periphery – 1.0 ± 0.21 vs. 0.5 ± 0.37 mm, respectively. Next, we determined whether anyone from the main group had ACA values similar to the average values of this indicator of the comparison group (13.1 ± 5.1°): in 6 eyes of the main group (3 men aged 40 to 45 years) the values of the ACA turned out to be minimal, not significantly differing from the comparison group. In addition, in 7 eyes of 6 patients of the main group, the index of the AC depth in the periphery was less than 0.5 mm with normal values of the AC depth in the central zone, which was comparable with similar values in the comparison group. Conclusion. Among the examined patients with hyperopia at the age of 39 to 45 years, with axial length values from 19 to 22 mm, an increased risk of developing an acute angle-closure glaucoma occurred in 9 patients (26 %).

According to some authors, standard therapy does not always prevent the neurodegenerative process in the retina, which indicates processes that do not depend on intraocular pressure (IOP). The model of NMDA-induced retinal degeneration was chosen by us as one of the main ones for the experimental modeling of glaucoma, due to the fact that glutamate is the main neurotransmitter and triggers excitotoxicity leading to the death of ganglion cells. 7 days after the model the electrophysiological state of the retina was assessed and organs were taken for morphological examination. According to the results of the study, it was found that the compound under the laboratory code DMAE 10-19 had the highest activity. The introduction of the compound led to an improvement in the electrophysiological function of the retina, which consisted in an increase in the amplitude of the wave-a by 34.4 %, the amplitude of the wave-b by 38.2 % relative to the group with the pathology model and has a significant difference (p < 0.05).

Experts'opinions vary on its necessity. Visual inspection during surgery does not always make it possible to assess the degree of ILM adhesion to the retina. The aimof the study was to evaluate the morphofunctional parameters of the macular zone after ILM peeling with different degree of adhesion in the long-term postoperative period. Material and methods. A study was conducted that included 119 patients with type 1 (65 (55%) and type 2 (54 (45%) diabetes mellitus with proliferative stage of diabetic retinopathy (PDR) and tractional diabetic macular edema (tDME). All patients underwent a standard three-port 25G vitrectomy with the use of an additional endo-luminaire «chandelier» and bimanual membrane peeling technique. During ILM peeling, all patients underwent intraoperative optical coherence tomography (I-OCT) in order to assess the degree of ILM adhesion to the retina. Before, 1 and 12 months after the operation, the determination of the maximum corrected visual acuity (MCVA), OCT of the macular zone with the measurement of the central retinal thickness (CRT) was performed. Results and discussion. 3 degrees of adhesion of ILM to the retina were identified with I-OCT during ILM peeling. The degree of ILM adhesion in fovea significantly correlated with the development of a retinal defect in its central area. The development of retinal central zone atrophy showed a significant correlation with a decrease in MCVA 12 months after surgery and with the degree of ILM adhesion to the retina in patients with both types of DM. Conclusions. According to the results of this study, a significant correlation was shown between the degree of ILM adhesion to the retina determined by I-OCT and the risk of macular atrophy, which in turn is associated with low visual functions of patients after tDME surgery with ILM peeling.

An analysis was made for 2021–2022. Aflibercept was used in all cases. The course began with 3 monthly loading injections with a further transition to the T&E treatment regimen. Results. A total of 467 nAMD patients received treatment in 2021. In their structure, 87 patients were primary, 380 people were repeated. The average number of injections was 6 during the first year in primary patients and 3 injections in repeat patients. Treatment was denied to 8 primary and 32 repeat patients for various reasons. In total, 522 injections were performed for primary patients and 1140 for repeated ones in 2021. The duration of therapy in all 380 repeat patients ranged from 2 to 9 years. 584 patients received nAMD treatment in 2022. One eye was treated in 492 people, both eyes were treated in 92 people.
