В статье рассмотрена объективная оценка состояния морфофункционального статуса роговицы при кератоконусе после перенесенной процедуры кросслинкинга роговичного коллагена.</p></sec><sec><title>Цель исследования</title><p>Цель исследования. Оценить изменения структуры роговицы после применения кросслинкинга роговичного коллагена при кератоконусе.</p></sec><sec><title>Материалы и методы</title><p>Материалы и методы. В исследование были включены 24 пациента – 30 глаз с КК I–III ст. в возрасте от 17 до 42 лет. Пациенты были обследованы до и после проведения процедуры кросслинкинга роговичного коллагена. Период послеоперационного наблюдения составил 12 мес. Для оценки локализации демаркационной линии пациентам выполняли оптическую когерентную томографию переднего отрезка глаза. При помощи лазерной конфокальной микроскопии проводили послойную оценку роговицы и нервных волокон роговицы с последующим анализом получившихся конфокальных снимков с применением авторского алгоритма анализа.</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты и обсуждение</title><p>Результаты и обсуждение. Полная эпителизация роговицы наступила на 3–5-й день после процедуры. Глубина залегания демаркационной линии, по данным ОКТ, в центре составляла в среднем 260 мкм, на периферии – 140 мкм. На первой неделе наблюдения отмечали выраженный отек наружной стромы, также в течение первого месяца отмечали снижение плотности и апоптоз кератоцитов. В период с 3-го по 12-й мес. послеоперационного наблюдения происходил регресс транзиторного лакунарного отека и восстановление плотности кератоцитов до исходного уровня. В первые три месяца визуализируется выраженное нарушение хода и структуры нервных волокон роговицы.</p></sec><sec><title>Заключение</title><p>Заключение. Процедура кросслинкинга приводит к изменениям структуры роговицы, одним из которых является появление демаркационной линии в строме, что показывает глубину проникновения фотохимического процесса сшивания коллагена роговицы. С помощью метода лазерной конфокальной микроскопии роговицы возможно объективно оценить глубину данного воздействия, при этом значения, полученные в те же сроки наблюдения, сопоставимы с результатами ОКТ. </p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Introduction</title><p>Introduction. The article considers an objective assessment of the state of morphofunctional status of cornea in keratoconus after a corneal collagen crosslinking procedure.</p></sec><sec><title>Aim</title><p>Aim. To assess changes in cornea structure after corneal collagen crosslinking in keratoconus. Materials and methods. The study included 24 patients: 30 eyes with KC stage I–III aged 17 to 42 years. The patients were examined before and after the  corneal collagen crosslinking procedure. The postoperative follow-up period was 12  months. The patients underwent anterior segment OCT (AS-OCT) imaging to assess the demarcation line depth. The cornea and cornea nerve fibers were assessed layer-by-layer using сonfocal laser scanning microscopy, followed by the  analysis of  resulting confocal images through the author’s analysis algorithm.</p></sec><sec><title>Results and discussion</title><p>Results and discussion. The epithelialization of the cornea completed on day 3–5 after the procedure. According to OCT findings, the depth of the demarcation line averaged to 260 µm in the center and 140 µm in the periphery. The pronounced edema of the outer stroma was observed during the first-week follow-up, and a decrease in the density and apoptosis of keratocytes was noted during the first month. Over a 3–12-month postoperative follow-up period, the transient lacunar edema regressed and the density of keratocytes was restored to the baseline level. During the first three months, a pronounced disruption of the direction and structure of the cornea nerve fibres is seen.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Conclusion. The crosslinking procedure results in changes in the cornea structure, one of which is appearance of the demarcation line in the stroma, which indicates the depth of penetration of the photochemical corneal collagen crosslinking process. The laser corneal confocal microscopy allows to objectively assess the depth of this effect, while the values obtained in the same follow-up periods are comparable with the findings of OCT imaging. </p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>кросслинкинг роговичного коллагена</kwd><kwd>лазерная конфокальная микроскопия роговицы</kwd><kwd>оптическая когерентная томография</kwd><kwd>кератоконус</kwd><kwd>нервные волокна роговицы</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>corneal collagen crosslinking</kwd><kwd>laser corneal confocal microscopy</kwd><kwd>optical coherence tomography</kwd><kwd>keratoconus</kwd><kwd>corneal nerve fibers</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Rabinowitz Y.S.
