Abstract

Glaucoma is a socially significant disease, which is a wide group of polyetiological diseases. In the etiology of primary glaucoma, in addition to the mechanical theory, a vascular mechanism is also distinguished, and therefore, the search and development of the most informative and accurate method for studying ocular blood flow continues. Existing methods are divided into invasive and non-invasive. Invasive methods include angiography with intravenous fluorescein and indocyanine. Non-invasive methods include ultrasound Doppler mapping and pulsed Doppler modes, optical coherence tomography with angiography and laser speckle flowography. The review presents data on modern methods for ocular hemodynamics in glaucoma and ocular hypertension with technologies for studying retrobulbar blood flow and intraocular hemocirculation.
