[Method for assessing involution ophthalmoendotoxicosis by fluorescent analysis of lacrimal fluid]

A method for evaluating the binding capacity of aqueous humor albumin as endoophthalmotoxicosis indicator is proposed, consisting in evaluation of this parameter in the lacrimal fluid by fluorescent probe K-35. A correlation between the studied parameter in aqueous humor, lacrimal fluid, and blood serum has been detected. Albumin binding capacity in the above biological fluids of patients with involution ophthalmopathy was low.
