title: [Studies of the eye in the early diagnosis of deviations in the health status of workers in the oil-refining industry].
abstract: Workers engaged in oil-refining industries are exposed to constant occupation-related factors resulting in specific changes of the eye (moderate irritations of the palpebral conjunctiva, bulbar conjunctiva degeneration, angiopathy of the retina, and distortions in the light/darkness adaptation of the eye). There was a direct correlation between the changes and degrees of exposure to the hazardous occupational factors and their effects on the nervous, cardio-vascular and digestion systems. This proved a possibility of using respective data of ophthalmologic examinations for an early diagnosis of somatic diseases in the workers.
