[Methodological approaches to correcting myopia in flight personnel].
Myopia as the main reason of disqualification of the pilots meets in 2.7% of cases from number of all certificates and in 17% serves the main reason of restriction in flying work. The authors offer a new technique of correction of myopia in pilots, based on principles of the complex approach: the primary visual status at choice of a method of correction; the estimation of efficiency of correction is founded on the professional visual testing; the adverse conditions of activity of a pilot influence on a choice of a method of correction. The authors estimate efficiency of three methods of correction of myopia in the pilots: anterior dosed radial keratotomy, direct electrical ophthalmostimulation (DEOS) and contact correction, formulate an experts' report about efficiency of application of DEOS and contact lenses, prove a conducting role of contact correction in system of medical and professional rehabilitation of flying personnel with myopia.
