| Summary: | Disorders of the posterior segment of the eye are traditionally one of the most important medical and social problem. The rapid development in the ophthalmology field in the 20th and 21st centuries has led to a significant improvement in the knowledge on the physiology and pathology of the light-perceiving eye structures, revolutionary achievements in the diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of retinal diseases, optic nerve, choroid and vitreous body pathology. The need for highly qualified physicians with a modern understanding of this problem led to the emergence of an ophthalmological specialization called “retinology”. Modern retinology includes various areas of diagnostics (including visualization of eye structures, electrophysiological and genetic methods), as well as drug, laser and microsurgical treatment and rehabilitation of the patients. In the rapidly developing medicine, sociological research is extremely important, allowing health care organizers to assess existing trends and make decisions determining the development direction in the field, and specialists to exchange opinions and analyze their professional activities. Retinology is no exception. Surveys of professional organizations of retinologists that have great scientific and practical significance are successfully conducted abroad, the most famous of which are the EURETINA Clinical Trends Survey and the ASRS Preferences and Trends (PAT) Survey. In Russia, such surveys have not been conducted to date. At the same time, the opportunity to learn the opinions of Russian specialists, as well as to compare domestic and foreign data is of undoubted interest. In 2024, we organized and conducted the first independent Russian survey of retinologists “SETCHAtochkaRU”, in which 585 ophthalmologists from all federal districts of the Russian Federation took part, as well as our colleagues from Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lebanon, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Turkey and Uzbekistan. The main results of the survey are presented in this publication. |
