LOCAL CHANGES OF THE FREE RADICAL STATUS OF THE CORNEA AT THE EXPERIMENTAL PURULENT ULCER

The results of the study of the activity of lipid peroxidation and the condition of antioxidant system of the cornea at the experimental purulent ulcer are presented. It is shown that the course of a purulent ulcer of the cornea was accompanied different changes of contents of the TBA-reactive products of lipid peroxidation in the tissue of the cornea. Activation of lipid peroxidation was observed at the beginning of the formation of purulent ulcers and and during cornea scarring. There was also change in the antioxidant system of the cornea depending on the stage of development of the corneal process. The obtained results allow to develop the scheme of treatment of the studied pathology with the inclusion of antioxidants with accurate observance of a stage of pathological process.
