Nowadays age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and glaucoma are the main causes of the irreversible loss of sight in the developed countries. The analysis of 5000 of out-patient records of senior patients (over 50 years) has revealed glaucoma in 30.3%, AMD in 37.94%, and their combination in 20.3% cases. In AMD, the structure signs of the dry form of the disease are diagnosed in 74% of the cases, the geographical atrophy in 12% and the wet atrophy ― in 14%. However, it requires careful monitoring of dynamics of the visual- functional and structural changes of the retina and optic nerve, as well as timely therapy correction. A combined course of the diseases with neurodegenerative nature of lesion leads to decrease of not only visual, but also cognitive functions, signifcantly influences of the senior age group patients’ quality of life and their adaptation in society.
