Abstract

In the article are presented analytical review of scientific articles devoted to the study of modern methods of diagnostics of primary glaucoma. On the basis of scientific articles, a review material was collected and systematized on diagnostic methods for studying morphometric and functional changes in primary glaucoma, which are used in modern ophthalmic practice. In recent years, the improvement and implementation of new high-tech modern diagnostic methods open up new opportunities for researchers and clinicians. Optical coherence tomography, OCT angiography, static perimetry make it possible, by comparing morphometric and functional parameters, to give a more complete, comprehensive assessment of pathological changes in the optic nerve head, in the macular region and at the level of the choriocapillaries. Prevention of glaucoma blindness largely depends on its early diagnosis based on the use of modern organizational and medical technologies. Key words: glaucoma, open-angle glaucoma, intraocular pressure, glaucomatous optic neuropathy, diagnostic methods.
