title: [Plasma-modified silicone graft for scleroplasty in progressive myopia].
abstract: Plasma-chemical modification of synthetic transplant material (proliferous silicone) intended for scleroplasty in progressive myopia was theoretically substantiated, developed in the experiment and tested in practice. This treatment was shown to enhance the biocompatibility of a graft which tightly joins the sclera through the connective tissue intergrown from the surrounding capsule into the graft. The efficacy of the proposed plasma-modified grafts in stabilizing progressive myopia in 18 patients operated on (33 eyes) aged 6 to 49 years (spherical equivalent myopia degree 3.0-28.0 D) during 3- year followup was 97%. There was an elevation of uncorrected and corrected visual acuity, are active course of the postoperative period.
