[Protocol of intravitreal drug delivery. Consensus of the Expert Counsil of Retina and Optic Nerve Diseases of the All-Russian Public Organasation «Association of Ophthalmologists»].

Intravitreal drug administration is a procedure that has become widespread in modern ophthalmology. However, there is no global consensus on certain aspects of this manipulation, and practitioners feel the need for guidelines. In the Russian Federation, until now, such a document was not available.

[Change of priorities when selecting the method of eye removal: enucleation versus evisceration].

Unlabelled: The development and evolution of conservative and surgical methods of treating patients with various ocular pathologies influence the priorities when selecting the method of eye removal.

Purpose: To perform comparative analysis of eye removal methods based on the results of own studies over a long period.

Material And Methods: The study analyses eye removal surgeries performed in Helmholtz Moscow Research Institute of Eye Diseases over the period of 1991 to 2016 and investigates the reasons of selecting enucleation and evisceration methods.

[Epidemiology and rehabilitation of persons with anophthalmos in the Russian Federation].

The time course of changes in the rate of enucleations and the prevalence of anophthalmos in the Russian Federation, which have recently been growing steadily, were studied. By analyzing a great body of clinical materials from 1337 patients with anophthalmos, they show the ways of forming a locomotor stump and the most commonly used implants and recommend the optimal shapes of standard artificial eyes for the rehabilitation of persons with anophthalmos and a cosmetically defective blind eye. Ocular prosthetic repair as a method of social, psychological, and medical rehabilitation is one of the principal stages of upgrading the quality of life in the patients who have lost eyes.

[Dependence of mobility of an eye prosthesis on the method of rectus muscle fixation].

The relationship between the mobility of eye prosthesis and method of musculus rectus fixation was investigated. The results indicate that fixation of the muscles to subconjunctival tissues allows the best mobility of the eye prosthesis. This method of musculus rectus fixation is most similar to anatomical fixation.

[New methods of measuring the mobility of ocular prosthesis in anophthalmia and their comparative study].

Methods for measuring the mobility of ocular prostheses in patients with anophthalmia were developed and compared between each other and with the traditional Forster method for measuring the prosthesis mobility along perimeter. The most accurate method is measurement of the angle tangent (method No. 3), while Forster measurement is the least accurate and most subjective.
