THE OPTICAL EFFICIENCY KINESIOTHERAPY AS A METHOD OF PREVENTION OF ACQUIRED MYOPIA IN CHILDREN ^{[№ 12 ' 2015]}
The problem of acquired myopia remains relevant today. It is no exaggeration to say that myopia is an epidemic of our time. Despite intensive methods of treatment and prevention of myopia, the number of myopic people is steadily increasing every year, it is especially pronounced among students. It is known that among high school graduates, the incidence of myopia up to 26 %, gymnasiums and lyceums — 50 %. Myopia limits the ability of a person in school and choosing profession is one of the most common causes of low vision (35.1–40.3 %) and disability (14.6–44,8 %) impaired. Consequently, there is now a need to develop an effective method of prevention of acquired myopia. In the study, we examined two groups of first graders. In one group the children received two courses of optical kinesiotherapy to study this method as a way of preventing myopia. In both groups by the end of the school year there was a significant increase in inventory relative accommodative. In the group, the course of the last optical kinesiotherapy, there has been a significant significant increase in reserves of adaptation of the visual system, and the results achieved have been preserved and even improved by the end of the school year. In the second group was significantly lower data rates in the course of the school year. Optical kinesiotherapy — is an effective method of recovery and further improvement of the system of visual perception, creates conditions for increasing the stability of the system of visual perception to visual stress, as well as to the hyperopic defocus. This method of improving the visual system is easy to use, good for personal use and also for mass preventive measures.

RESULTS OF PREVENTION AND TREATMENT OF THE ACQUIRED MYOPIA USING SIMULATORS "ZENICA" AT THE SCHOOL ^{[№ 12 ' 2015]}
The onset and progression of school myopia is an acute social problem. Myopia affects about 35 % of the world population, have high myopia observed in 7 %. Causes of myopia in school age are intense visual loads at close range, wide spread of gadgets schoolchildren from 1 class. According to inspection of schoolchildren 2^nd and 3^rd classes of a comprehensive school of Izhevsk it was found 29.8 % of those with a myopic refraction. Visual acuity at myopes before treatment was 0.41 and after treatment had risen to 0.42. Moreover, full recovery of visual acuity to 1.0 mentioned in 6.25 % of cases (3 eyes). In emmetropia at the beginning of observation, visual acuity was 0.98, and in the end — 0.96. After the course with TDO "Zenica" noted a significant increase in reserves accommodation 0.6 diopters. Increase of resistance to defocusing for a distance — expansion of a focal zone with the resolution of 40 % in emmetropia –7,0 D and miopy — 5.75 D. The use of TDO "Zenica" marked improvement of visual acuity in children with myopic refraction. In both groups resistance of visual acuity to defocusing for a distance with negative lenses increased. Therefore, resistance to a gipermetropichesky defocus which accelerates growth of an eyeball increased. Possibility of passive adaptation process refractogenesis exist throughout the "period of risk of formation of myopia". Therefore the courses of trainings directed on preservation of balance of visual loadings we recommend to carry out on a constant basis in an age interval from 6–7 to 18–25 years 2 times within a year.
