FIELD: medicine; medical engineering. SUBSTANCE: method involves placing light protection glasses rim carrying photodiodes built in into the frontal panel. The photodiodes emit optical impulses of green, blue and red color. Diagnostic examination of vision functions is carried out by changing light impulse emission frequency from lower to higher values. Critical fusion frequency is determined in turn in each eye changing the fundamental three light impulse colors in succession. Functional state of the central zone of retina and optic nerve pathological changes are diagnosed by proving the following conditions. If critical fusion frequency in acting with red light falls to greater extent than in the cases of green light exposure and to greater extent when comparing to reference normal value, central retinal zone function disorder is to be diagnosed. If critical fusion frequency in acting with green light falls to greater extent than in the cases of red light exposure, optical nerve and vision tract disorders are to be diagnosed. Vision functions are repaired by applying pulsating color photostimulation method. Device has casing having impulse generator connected to two photodiodes fixed in light protection screen and to power supply source. Timer is mounted between the power supply source and impulse generator. EFFECT: high accuracy of diagnosis; enhanced effectiveness of treatment. 10 cl, 2 dwg
