Abstract: We present the results of recent studies that develop principally new approaches to solving the problem of visual impairment and provide the basis for new laser technologies in ophthalmology for the treatment of glaucoma, myopia and hypermetropia. The considered theoretical models and optical methods for detecting laser-induced structural changes in eye tissues pave the way to the invention of control systems with feedback, providing efficient and safe laser treatment.

Keywords: laser, glaucoma, refraction, thermotensions, optical methods, structural changes.
