Summary:
the development of diagnostic technologies in medicine, in particular in ophthalmology, made it possible to study the human eye not only at the histological, but also at the cellular level. The role of the nervous system in the operation of the visual analyzer is associated not only with the provision of motor, protective and sensory functions, but above all, with the provision of the visual process itself. Neurodegenerative diseases occupy a special place among systemic pathologies. Currently, the development of this process is associated with neo -sleeping, the role of which is confirmed by glaucoma. For this reason, achieving the target level of intraocular pressure does not always guarantee the stabilization of the degenerative process. Due to this, neuroprotectors are recommended to be used in any patient with glaucoma, taking into account the characteristics of the pathogenesis of the disease. Due to its antioxidant and neuroprotective properties of ethylmethylhydroxypyridine, succinate (Mexidol) is widely used in ophthalmological practice, in particular in the treatment of patients with optical neuropathy and retinal diseases. The research results showed the effectiveness of Mexidol in relation to the slowdown of neurodegeneration and stabilization of visual functions in patients with primary open -angle glaucoma due to the anti -hyphyxant, antioxidant and membranebusing properties of the drug and its positive effect on the neuromatible balance and eye bloodstreams. Keywords: ophthalmology, eye, neuro -drunk, glaucoma, glaucoma optical neuropathy, neuroprotection for glaucoma, ethylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate, Mexidol, Mexidol Forte 250.
