Fokin V.P., Ezhova E.A., Balalin S.V. CONTACT CORRECTION OF AMETROPIA AFTER LASIKWe observed 20 patients who had previously been held excimer laser vision correction. The median age was — 26.8 ± 0.27 years. Patients were divided into two groups of 10 (10 eyes). In group 1 uncorrected visual acuity (UNCA) averaged 0.24 ± 0.01, sphere-equivalent (SE) — 1.58 ± 0.1 diopters, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) — 0.98 ± 0.01. In group 2 UNCA averaged 0.23 ± 0.01, SE — 1.63 ± 0.1 diopters, BCVA — 0.99 ± 0.01. Patients in one group were assigned to the soft contact lens (SCL) ("1-Day Acuvue TruEye") in daily wear. Patients in group 2 were assigned orthokeratology contact lenses (OKL) ("Emerald"), used during sleep. Research UNCA, BCVA, SE, holding biomicroscopy was performed at 1, 3 and 6 months after the appointment of a contact lens (CL). Within 1 month of observation in the appointment of CL was obtained significant (p < 0.05) increase and decrease UNCA, SE in group 2. Significant differences in BCVA between the use of OKL and SCL has not been received (p > 0.05), which indicates a positive effect on the equivalent of both options on the parameters KL BCVA. Using OKL, as well as SCL, allows to obtain high functional results of vision correction, and given a certain congruence of OKL and the profile of the cornea after LASIK, provides an additional opportunity to achieve a stable and comfortable vision for the patient.Key words: LASIK, myopia, soft contact lenses, orthokeratology contact lenses.
