Abstract

A review of the literature data is presented, which indicates the possible influence of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) on the formation of both systemic and retinal vascular pathology. Despite the fact that the overall incidence of thromboembolic complications as a result of the use of ART is low, nevertheless, in women included in the in vitro fertilization program, their risk increases by 10 times. Therefore, due to the adverse effect of these drugs on the hemostatic system of a woman, ophthalmologists should be more wary of them in order to detect vascular retinal pathology in a timely manner. Key words: assisted reproductive technologies, in vitro fertilization, hyperestrogenism, vascular retinal pathology.
