Abstract

Objective. To assess differences in the hemodynamic parameters of ophthalmic arteries and superior ophthalmic veins in non-pregnant women of reproductive age and in women with physiological pregnancy. Subjects and methods. A study group included 48 pregnant women aged 26 to 34 years at 30-40 weeks gestation. A comparison group consisted of 55 healthy, non-pregnant women aged 24-34 years. The number of previous pregnancies and births, the period of gestation (in the group of pregnant women), and blood pressures (BP) were recorded in both groups. The hemodynamic values of ophthalmic vessels were examined in both eyes. Results. In the pregnant women with normal BP levels, the blood flow velocity values were not found to practically differ from those in the ophthalmic arteries and veins in non-pregnant women. Conclusion. Analysis of the findings revealed no significant correlation between the period of gestation and the blood flow velocity values in the ophthalmic arteries and veins in the group of pregnant women.
