FIELD: medicine; ophthalmology.
SUBSTANCE: posterior long ciliary arteries and vorticose veins are exposed to Dopplergraphy. After blood circulation is measured, minute volume of aqueous hydatoid and outflow ease factor are evaluated. If maximal systolic blood circulation is reduced in posterior long ciliary arteries relative to pair eye or norm not less than in 2 times with maximal vorticose veins less than 6.0 cm/s, and minute volume of aqueous hydatoid and outflow ease factor are reduced relative to pair eye or norm not less than in 1.5 times, disease progressing is predicted. Method enables to use haemo- and hydrodynamic indicators as prediction criteria for progressing open-angle glaucoma.
EFFECT: higher reliability and reduced examination time.
