MORPHOMETRIC FEATURES OF EYE STRUCTURES ACCORDING TO OCT DATA AND CHANGES IN RHEOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS IN INDIVIDUALS WITH ANTERIOR UVEITIS COMPLICATED BY OPTIC NEURITIS

Abstract

Purpose - Identify changes in the optic disc and vascular membrane by OCT, as well as features of hemodynamics and the possibility of communication between these parameters. Materials and methods In 150 patients with idiopathic monolateral anterior uveitis, ophthalmic (visometry, biomicroscopy, ophthalmoscopy), examination, rheophthalmography (ROG) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) of structures were performed. Statistical analysis was performed using Statistica 10.0. Results The OCT results of the eyes of patients with optic neuritis on the background of anterior uveitis showed a significant increase in the thickness of the layer of peripapillary nerve fibers and vascular membrane by 34.3 and 38.9% relative to the data in anterior uveitis without complications. ROG revealed a significant increase in the tone of small and large vessels of the eye in neuritis on the background of anterior uveitis by 14.2 and 17.2% compared to those without neuritis. Conclusions The results of OCT of eyes with optic neuritis against the background of anterior uveitis showed an increase in the thickness of the layer of peripapillary nerve fibers and the choroid relative to the data in patients with uveitis without complications. Average connection - between the diameter of the optic nerve at the entrance to the orbit and the parameters of the ROG.
