The article reviews studies dedicated to evaluation of corneal nerve fibers (CNF) after various laser keratorefractive methods of correcting refractive error based on confocal microscopy. The matter of studying the dynamics of the condition of CNF after laser keratorefractive techniques continues to be relevant and requires further research with regard to the prevalence of refractive errors on the one hand, and the future life of patients who undergo these procedures, on the other. Certain heterogeneity of the research results presented in this review can be partially explained by the subjective nature of the study algorithm (in particular, the need for manual tracing of nerve fibers) and the lack of objective quantitative indicators of CNF condition suitable for statistical processing.

Accommodation disorders in young people are more common than diagnosed. This review is based on the data of domestic and foreign literature and studies the effect of contact lenses of various designs on accommodation. Particular attention has been given to bifocal soft contact lenses as one of the recognized interventions for treating juvenile progressive myopia and their ability to slow axial elongation. Key words: accommodation, myopia control, bifocal contact lenses, orthokeratology.
