METHOD OF TREATING PHARMACORESISTANT FORMS OF INFECTIOUS KERATITIS Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC A61F9/07 A61F9/08 A61N1/00 A61N5/67 A61K31/525 A61P27/02 

FIELD: medicine; ophthalmology.

SUBSTANCE: invention can be used in treating pharmacoresistant forms of infectious keratitis of bacterial, fungal or acanthamoeba origin. That is ensured by fulguration and crosslinking of the corneal tissue infiltration zone. Fulguration is carried out with a spark plasma discharge generated by direct current with output power of 1.6 Wt. Cross-linking is carried out by installations of 20 % dextran solution every 2 minutes for 20 minutes and UV-irradiation of the central corneal zone with diameter of 8 mm for 10 minutes with radiation intensity 9 mW/cm².

EFFECT: invention provides effective treatment of pharmacoresistant forms of infectious keratitis, having bacterial, fungal, acanthamoeba origin, due to treatment of corneal surface with areas of small area, as a result, healthy tissue surrounding the treated area is not damaged.
