STUDY OF INFLUENCE OF ADDITIONAL INTRODUCTION OF BIOTIN ON DEVELOPMENT OF LENTICULAR OPACITY IN MODELLING OF LIGHT CATARACT

Kalashnikov V. V.

Donetsk, Ukraine

Action of light under the conditions of additional introduction of vitamin H on optical properties of the lens in experiment was studied.

Animals have been irradiated with light energy of high intensity for 40 weeks, where one group of animals received Vitamin H with food. It is established that under the conditions of H-hypovitaminosis cataractogenic effect of light is manifested much more strongly. Under such conditions lenticular opacity developed earlier than in the lenses of animals, which receives biotin, the latter were noted to have only 1 and 2 degree of opacity. Whereas changes of 4 and 5 degrees have not been revealed in these animals. Thus, application of biotin has allowed to reduce to a significant degree development of pathological changes of high degree in the lenses after 40-week influence of light energy of high intensity.
