Abstract
Long-term infectious processes occurring in the conjunctiva present a difficult task, which is associated with a significant change in the microflora towards resistant gram-negative bacteria. In addition, the frequency of occurrence of chronic forms of diseases increases, which are almost always caused by a mixed infection. Thus, in order to achieve the most effective treatment results, an accurate diagnosis is necessary with the identification of all participants in microbial communities.
In the NIMC of Eye Diseases named after Helmholtz, Voronezh Regional Clinical Ophthalmological Hospital and the Regional Center for Specialized Types of Care (Voronezh) conducted a study involving 589 patients with infectious diseases of the anterior segment of the eye caused by Ch. trachomatis, including mixed infection.
Key words: mixed infection, chlamydia, eye drops, conjunctiva.
