Существуют две различных точки зрения относительно роли глазной микроциркуляции при глаукоме. Согласно одной, снижение глазной гемоперфузии - это следствие атрофии нервной ткани, согласно другой - нарушение микроциркуляции происходит уже на ранних этапах заболевания, вызывая гибель нейрональных структур. Однако на сегодня мало что известно о ретинальной микроциркуляции при глаукоме. Внедрение в практику оптической когерентной томографии-ангиографии (ОКТ-А) открыло перспективы в понимании связи микроциркуляторных и структурных повреждений при глаукоме. В обзоре приводятся данные об анатомии и физиологии микроциркуляторного русла сетчатки и ДЗН, уточненные благодаря методу ОКТ-А. Для цитирования: Курышева Н.И.

There are two different points of view on the role of ocular microcirculation in glaucoma. According to one of them, ocular hemoperfusion reduction is a consequence of nerve tissue atrophy. Other authors suggest that the retinal microcirculatory bed can already be damaged at early stages of the disease, causing the death of neuronal structures. However, little is known today about retinal microcirculation in glaucoma. The introduction of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) has opened prospects in understanding the connection of microcirculatory and structural damages in glaucoma. The paper provides the data on the anatomy and physiology of microcirculatory bloodstream of the retina and optic disc, which were obtained using OCTA. For citation: Kurysheva N.I.
