THE STUDY OF EYE MORPHOMETRICS, CONTENT OF MICROELEMENTS DETERMINING THE TYPE OF CLINICAL COURSE OF THE POSTOPERATIVE PERIOD OF PHACOEMULSIFICATION IN PATIENTS WITH HIGH DEGREE MYOPIA
To study the role of different forms of the eye, nucleus density of the lens, presence and structures of microelementosis causing complicated course of the postoperative period of phacoemulsification of cataracts in patients with high degree myopia to predict outcomes. Phacoemulsification was carried out in 102 patients (178 eyes) with the cataract and high degree myopia. All patient underwent examination of the form of the eye on correlation front-back and vertical sizes of the eye, nucleus density of the lens was studied by biomicroscopy methods. We have studied microelements content in the hair by method of masses-spectrometry with inductive-bound argon by plasma on instrument ICP-MS Elan DRC II Perkin Elmer (USA). Results and discussions: In the general, patient with cataract and high degree myopia «extended ellipsoid» form of the eye (51,1%) was predominant. The risk factors of complicated course of the postoperative period after phacoemulsification were: high frequency of the deformed forms of eyes, high nucleus density of the lens, reliably low content of magnesium, zinc, selenium, increased content of lead.
