Description
Summary:The review discusses the treatment methods based on physical phenomena in clinical ophthalmology. The physical nature and treatment techniques using electric current and electromagnetic field, light and laser radiation, mechanical energy and sound waves, high and low temperature in various ocular pathologies are considered. It is noted that reliable evaluation of the effectiveness of physical treatment methods for the different diseases and pathological conditions requires the implementation of protocols that include objective testing methods of the structure and functioning of the visual system. Once the clinical effectiveness of the particular physical treatment methods and techniques is confirmed, further development and improvement of the most efficient ones becomes possible.
