[Modern methods of ocular hemodynamics assessment in surgical correction of visual ischemic disturbances]

The paper describes management results of 56 patients with occlusive and stenotic atherosclerotic lesions of carotid arteries, complicated by different forms of ocular ischemia. Complex assessment (duplex scanning, color Doppler mapping, transcranial Doppler) before and a year after carotid endarterectomy revealed a significant improvement in objective parameters of ocular hemodynamics: registration of antegrade blood flow in ophthalmic artery, the rise of maximal systolic blood flow velocity and decrease of resistance index in ophthalmic, central retinal and posterior ciliary arteries.
