BACKGROUND: Visual impairment is a worldwide problem for the humanity in general, including students.
 AIM: to conduct rough estimate of visual system status senior medical students at Russian universities taking training according General Medicine educational program 31.05.01 (specialty) and having completed ophthalmology course.
 MATERIALS AND METHODS: an online anonymous survey from five various cities country was conducted using original interactive questionnaire. Answers were...
Myopic refraction is the most common ocular pathology, currently affecting about 1.5 billion people worldwide. Recent decades have seen a trend towards significant increase in myopia prevalence, which likely to continue near future. Therefore, we observe some kind of an epidemic myopia. The greatest concern caused by cases uncorrectable visual impairment associated with myopia, make pathological (degenerative) one leading causes low vision and blindness many countries. At same time, there...
Intravitreal drug administration is a procedure that has become widespread in modern ophthalmology. However, there no global consensus on certain aspects of this manipulation, and practitioners feel the need for guidelines. In Russian Federation, until now, such document was not available. The expert council diseases retina optic nerve All-Russian public organization «Association Ophthalmologists», with participation invited specialists, studied analyzed existing foreign guidelines...
The widespread introduction of intravitreal drug injections into clinical practice has highlighted a number issues to be solved, including the risk serious complications, treatment burden on patients and patient’s insufficient adherence treatment, as well significant effect healthcare cost effort. One ways resolve is increase patients’ awareness concerning therapy they are about receive, which contributes understanding details enables them make correct decisions. best option presenting such...
Axial myopia is a risk factor for the development of many concomitant pathological conditions, including those likely to lead an irreversible loss visual functions. Until now, specialists disagree about terminology and approaches classification myopia. We propose critical analysis state-of-the-art research use them offer, definitions such conditions as “myopic macular degeneration (myopic maculopathy)”, choroidal neovascularization” traction maculopathy” recommend in healthcare system...
to study long-term (≥2-year) RESULTS of ranibizumab treatment in patients with macular neovascular disorders.The group included 27 (mean age±SD 66.7±13.8 years) treated for approved indications. Follow-up period ranged from 24 58 months (34.5±9.1 on average).Optical coherence tomography showed statistically significant improvements functional and anatomical parameters, namely, an increase visual acuity (from 0.34±0.20 0.57±0.24, p≤0.01) a decrease both central retinal thickness 372.26±96.21...
Macular diseases are traditionally a serious issue in ophthalmology, which has great social impact due to widespread occurrence and significant vision loss, often irreversible. Over the past few decades, possibilities for diagnosis treatment of pathologies retina choroid have been significantly expanded. Randomized clinical trials provided ophthalmologists with valuable information on natural course strategies common retinal from viewpoint evidence-based medicine. However, large number...
Due to the significant medical and social importance of neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (wAMD), increasing effectiveness anti-VEGF therapy used treat this disease is one high-priority problems in modern retinology. This article focuses on pathobiological aspects clinical manifestations incomplete responses wAMD, considers proposed ways improve terminology classification therapy, as well assessment its correctness treatment. It also discusses available optimize define...
BACKGROUND: A widespread visual impairment among medical students is known, but there are no data on the ophthalmic status of clinical residents. AIM: To carry out an assessment analyzer in Russian universities graduates who begin residency according to specialty 31.08.59 Ophthalmology. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An anonymous residents’ online survey was conducted 15 from 14 cities using original interactive questionnaire. Responses were received 249 respondents (mostly females: n = 188, 75.5%;...
Интравитреальные инъекции лекарственных средств являются широко распространенной офтальмологической процедурой и основным способом доставки лекарств для лечения многих заболеваний глаз. Несмотря на в целом благоприятный профиль безопасности, интравитреальные могут сопровождаться разнообразными нежелательными явлениями, связанными как с лекарственным препаратом, так со или особенностями пациента. Среди них особое место занимают воспалительные осложнения, которые угрожать необратимым снижением...
High myopia is a common ametropia associated with significant risk of multiple comorbidities. Decreased visual functions myopic patients may be caused by non-specific diseases such as cataracts, glaucoma and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, which are very likely in myopia. Yet especially important the specific changes atrophic, traction neovascular manifestations pathological myopia, totality defined macular degeneration or maculopathy. The review highlights current approaches to diagnosis...
BACKGROUND: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is the main method for in vivo examination of morphology ocular posterior segment structures, used modern ophthalmological practice.
 AIM: Study special aspects performing and interpreting results OCT macula by ophthalmologists working healthcare system Russian Federation.
 MATERIALS AND METHODS: In anonymous survey, conducted using an original online questionnaire 12 questions 59 respondents took part. They confirmed being with...
Purpose: to identify statistically significant factors that determine adherence long-term follow-up on the part of patients receiving anti-VEGF therapy for macular diseases. Material and methods . A retrospective analysis was performed 247 (153 women, 94 men) aged 24 92 years treated with “wet” age-related degeneration (n = 164), diabetic edema 18), due retinal vein occlusion 35) myopic choroidal neovascularization 30). Demographic data treatment results were analyzed STATISTICA 13.3 program...
Intravitreal injection (IVI) is a drug delivery method, widely used in modern ophthalmology. To increase the awareness of patients receiving treatment healthcare system Russian Federation, Expert Council on Retinal and Optic Nerve Diseases Association Ophthalmologists, an All-Russian Public Organization 2020 proposed leaflet “Intravitreal injections (information for patients)”. Purpose: to conduct clinical assessment by multicenter anonymous surveying patients. Material methods. Patients who...
Purpose . To evaluate the economic and clinical results of aflibercept ranibizumab angiogenesis inhibitors in treat-and-extend regimen patients with “wet” form age-related macular degeneration (wAMD). Materials methods We analyzed cost minimization, impact on budget “missed opportunities” for treatment wAMD using intravitreal injections (IVI) compared to “treat-and-extend” (T & E). Costs were calculated regard system compulsory health insurance. calculate number IVI, network...
The introduction of ranibizumab into widespread ophthalmic practice in 2006 marked the beginning a new era treatment macular diseases. Despite availability drugs with proven efficacy and safety, significant efforts are being made to develop this area. literature review presents current data on anti-VEGF agents that still studied (brolucizumab, conbercept, abicipar pegol). Also highlighted strategies therapeutic options aimed increase duration effect, alleviating burden improving outcomes...
Patients lost to follow-up (LTFU) are a well-recognized challenge, both in clinical trials and real practice. PURPOSE: To study the reasons for patients receiving anti-VEGF therapy «wet¼ age-related macular degeneration (wAMD) environment cease monitoring clinic.

The treatment started between May 2010 August 2015. group included 57 remained under regular observation months. Of these, 24 cases had “wet” age-related degeneration (wAMD), 20 myopic choroidal...
Purpose: to study long-term results of anti-VEGF therapy for macular diseases patients followed up 60 months in real clinical practice. Materials and methods. The research group included 57 (43 women, 14 men; median age 62 years) who received antiVEGF (ranibizumab, aflibercept) remained under regular observation months.
