Two different approaches using artificial intelligence in optimization of IOL calculation are known: firstly, modification of existing theoretical formulas and secondly, based only on analysis of patients' database before and after IOL implantation. Each approach has its advantages and disadvantages. The absence of an «ideal» formula forces surgeons to analyze incoming patient data and make corrections to the results obtained based on their own experience when calculating IOLs.

The problem of evaluating the choice of treatment method for patients with glaucoma is widely covered in the medical literature, but currently there are no publications on indications and decision making about reoperation in case of complete or partial ineffectiveness of the treatment. Purpose. To describe a method for assessing the need and type of reoperation in the surgical treatment of glaucoma using an artificial neural network. Material and methods. 7801 cases of observation and treatment of patients diagnosed with glaucoma were selected for 2018 –2020. The development and statistical analysis of the factors associated with repeated surgical operations was carried out, a model for predicting the probability of repeated operations was created, mathematical modeling of the onset of complications depending on the identified factors was carried out using the method of constructing classification trees. The resulting model was used to assess the need for surgical treatment in patient registered in clinic in 2019. Cases of specialized medical care have been identified, in which, with a high degree of probability, long-term compensation of the pathological course of glaucoma will not occur and repeated surgical treatment will be required. These cases were copied into a separate database for further work. The preferred reoperation method for patient management was selected using an artificial neural network. Results. A number of factors that are statistically significantly associated with reoperation have been identified, and an artificial neural network model has been created to predict the type of reoperation in glaucoma. Application of the obtained method on patients who received treatment at the clinic in 2019 –2021 years made it possible to predict the probability of reoperation within a three-year follow-up period in 5%, while among the patients the need for treatment was distributed as follows: microfistulizing deep sclerectomy with allodrainage – 88.37%, selective laser trabeculoplasty – 6.98%, transscleral cyclophotocoagulation – 4.65%. Conclusion. The obtained method allows predicting the probability of re-treatment of glaucoma and the type of surgery required. Considering the specificity and sensitivity of the obtained models, it is necessary to increase the number of observations, further clinical and organizational study of aspects of the provision of medical services in previously operated glaucoma, and an assessment of the clinical and economic effect of the introduction of this method.

To evaluate method for spontaneous dislocation of «intraocular lens – capsular bag» complex (CICB) surgical treatment, that developed after phacoemulsification (PE), in relation to its severity. Material and methods. Clinical material included 36 patients (36 eyes) aged 61 to 89 years. Spontaneous dislocation of CICB after PE performed varied from 3 months to 11 years after surgery, average 5±2 years. According to our proposed classification degrees of severity spontaneous dislocation of CICB, its 1st degree took place in 8 eyes; 2nd – in 9 eyes; 3rd – in 16 eyes; 4th – in 3 eyes. Surgical treatment was not performed in patients with the 1st degree of CICB dislocation. At the 2nd degree of CICB dislocation and more severe, patients underwent its surgical correction, according to severity of the eye condition. Results. All surgical intervensions were carried out as planned, without complications. The postoperative response of the eyes was evaluated on the 1st and next days of the postoperative period (SN Fedorov, EV Egorova, 1992). In all cases, it corresponded to the amount of performed surgical intervention. So, in 19 eyes, it corresponded to the 1st degree; in 6 eyes – 2nd degree; 3 eyes developed 3rd degree postoperative response of the eyes (postoperative uveitis). Indexes of uncorrected visual acuity on days 3–5 in 14 eyes (50%) ranged from 0.05 to 0.4; in 6 eyes (21%) – did not change significantly; in 8 eyes (29%) we reached the indexes that took place immediately after PE.

Resistant fungal keratitis (keratomycosis) is a big current problem in ophthalmology. The limited arsenal of drugs and the low efficiency of surgical treatment often leads to extremely low anatomical and functional results. One of the alternative approaches to the management of fungal keratitis can be the use of nanoparticles, in monotherapy, or as a catalyst for a more effective effect of a native drug. Quantum dots (QDs) act as nanoparticles. Under the action of light in the visible region of the spectrum, QDs are capable of participating in redox reactions and the simulated formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by changing the electronic interactions with the surrounding atoms. Purpose. Synthesis of QDs potentially active against fungal microflora, study of the ability of this type of QDs and analogues to produce ROS and analysis of their fungicidal activity against yeast microflora in vitro. Material and methods. The study determined the effectiveness of the QDs solution in suppressing the growth of colonies of resistant species of fungi of the genus Candida spp (C. albicans, C. glabrata, C. tropicalis, C. Parapsilosis) in vitro. QDs Ag(10%):InP/ZnS MPA were used in the form of a native solution (10%) and at a dilution of 1:100 (0.1%). Results. It was possible to reveal the complete suppression of the visible growth of Candida spp. in the area treated with QDs, regardless of concentration. The diameter of the growth inhibition zone (GIZ) in all cases exceeded 24 mm, which corresponded to a high degree of sensitivity. Conclusion. The synthesized Ag(10%):InP/ZnS MPA QDs showed high antiinfective activity against the resistant yeast microbiota Candida spp. in laboratory conditions, playing one of the primary roles in the course of keratomycosis.
