Abstract

Increase of scleral water permeability due to formation of porous structure after exposure of pulsed periodic radiation of erbium-glass optical fiber laser with wave length 1,56 pm was demonstrated in experimental study of cadaver human eyes in vitro and eyes of experimental animals (rabbits) in vivo. Simultaneous complex laser exposure of pars plana and ciliary processes results in summation of morphological changes that provide decrease of aqueous humor secretion, uveal drainage and extension of suprachoroid space. A base for new noninvasive technology of nondestructive laser exposure in glaucoma treatment is established.
