Abstract:

The currently used classification of eye burns was proposed in 1973 by N.A. Puchkovskaya and V.M. Nepomnyashaya. Recent emergence of the concept of limbal stem cells of the corneal epithelium and its application in clinical practice has significantly expanded the possibilities for diagnosis, treatment, and visual rehabilitation of patients with eye burns. In 1997, Dr. Michael Wagoner proposed a classification of eye burns in which the grade of burn severity is determined by the degree of damage to the limbal stem cells. Considering this approach, the authors conducted a comparative analysis of the classifications of eye burns used in Russia (in different years) and those that have appeared in the Western countries in recent years. In this regard, a new classification of eye burns is being proposed.
