Relevance. Dry eye syndrome (DOS) makes up to 67% in women over 50 years old, more often against the background of menopause, in postmenopausal period. Purpose of the study is to characterize the clinical course of "dry eye" syndrome in menopausal women and to determine rational methods of treatment in such patients. Material and methods. All patients with the diagnosis of "menopausal syndrome" were referred to the eye diseases department of Samarkand State Medical University multidisciplinary clinic. All of them were diagnosed with "dry eye" syndrome. 20 patients (34 eyes) of the main group received systemic hormone replacement therapy in combination with tear replacement therapy (Sofdrops eye drops), 18 patients (32 eyes) of the control group received only tear replacement monotherapy. Results. At the end of a 10‑day course of treatment an increase in visual acuity (VA) was registered in both groups: in the main group — in 77,8%, in the control group — in 34% of cases. On the 30‑day follow-up the reliable restoration of tear production was registered in 17 patients (85%) in the main group; in the control group positive dynamics was observed only in 10 (50%) patients, in whom the Schirmer test was restored to 15 mm. Conclusion. Hormone replacement therapy in combination with tear replacement therapy significantly improves the parameters of tear production in patients diagnosed with dry eye syndrome, thereby reducing the number of subjective complaints and improving patients' quality of life.
