USING OZONOTHERAPY ON THE TREATMENT OF EYE DISEASES

Resume

Ozonetherapy is gaining attention in ophthalmology as a potential treatment for various eye conditions due to its anti-inflammatory, bactericidal, and circulatory benefits. Early uses in veterinary medicine show promise, particularly for anterior segment diseases, suggesting ozone could help reduce inflammation and infections in the eye. Studies and reviews have explored ozone therapy's application for eye diseases, noting different methods for administration, such as topical use and systemic delivery. Evidence suggests it may be effective for age-related macular degeneration (AMD), with some studies indicating improvements in visual acuity. Ozone therapy is also examined for other inflammatory conditions and wound healing, but has possible side effects, like burning eyes. While ozone can be beneficial, environmental exposure can worsen dry eye symptoms. Stabilized ozonated oils may offer a safer application for treatment. More extensive clinical trials are needed to establish standardized protocols and ensure safe usage

Key words: Ozonetherapy, dry eye syndrome, anterior segment of the eyeball, age-related macular dystrophy
