[Endocapsular fixation of intraocular lens in patients with ectopia lentis and Marfan syndrome (case study)].

Modern trends in advancement of phaco surgery techniques in patients with ectopia lentis (including patients with Marfan syndrome) are characterized by the transition from complete removal of the lens (lensectomy) to aspiration of the lens substance and attempts to preserve and reposition the capsular bag. This case study analyzes the results of surgical treatment of bilateral ectopia lentis in a 6-year-old patient with Marfan syndrome. The specifics of microinvasive phaco surgery consisted in capsular bag preservation and endocapsular fixation of the intraocular lens.

[Clinical and morphological characteristics of corneal epithelial dystrophy (clinical observations)].

This paper presents clinical observations that can be regarded as degeneration of the basement membrane of the corneal epithelium. Difficulties in identifying such forms of corneal dystrophies, on the one hand, are associated with limitation and polymorphism of the clinical picture, and, on the other hand, with insufficient information content of the basic diagnostic methods (i.e.

[Compensating the Descemet's membrane defect (a clinical case study)].

The article describes a clinical case of Descemet's membrane detachment that occurred during cataract phacoemulsification with implantation of intraocular lens. Significant corneal edema developed in the early post-op period. Considering the ability of endothelium to close its own defects even with large injury area, the patient was followed-up for 2 years.

[Corneal transparency: anatomical basis and evaluation methods].

Being just a relatively small part of the fibrous tunic of the eyeball, the cornea is, nevertheless, unique in terms of the variety of its functions. Because the cornea differs significantly from other protective frames in its structure, it provides the possibility of light transmission and strong refraction that largely contributes to the total refraction of the eye. The development of ophthalmology is impossible without improving methods of adequate anatomical and functional assessment of the eye not only as a whole, but also as a collection of interacting structures.

[Clinical results of aphakia correction with multifocal intraocular lenses].

Aim: to assess visual functions and ergonomics after bilateral versus unilateral implantation of Lentis Comfort LS-313 MF15 multifocal intraocular lenses (MIOL) in aphakic eyes.

Material And Methods: A total of 20 patients with М LENTIS LS-313 MF15 MIOLs were followed up. Group 1 consisted of 12 patients after bilateral symmetric implantation, group 2 - of 8 patients after unilateral procedure.
