description An increased share of the elderly in the structure of modern society, along with other causes and risk factors, is accompanied by the growing the incidence of glaucoma. According to international research in the world by 2020 it is predicted that glaucoma patients will increase to 80 million. Among the elderly, glaucoma is a common pathology, the development of which is associated with local disorders of the interleukin profile. However, the features of the latter in patients with primary closed-angle glaucoma in the elderly have not been studied. The purpose of this work is to identify the features and informativeness of local interleukin profile indicators in elderly patients with primary angle — closure glaucoma. The study included 58 patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma of stage II, who made up the main group, aged 60–74 years with a median of 70.1 ± 2.5 years. All patients underwent a comprehensive ophthalmological examination. The diagnosis of primary angle-closure glaucoma was established in accordance with the requirements of the National glaucoma guidelines. The control group consisted of 27 elderly people aged 60 to 74 years with a median of 68.7 ± 2.1 years without signs and manifestations of primary angle-closure glaucoma, who also underwent a comprehensive ophthalmological examination. Changes in proinflammatory interleukins at the local level in the development of primary angle-closure glaucoma are accompanied by a significant increase in their content in all cases. On the contrary, changes in anti-inflammatory interleukins in the lacrimal fluid in patients with the considered ophthalmological pathology are characterized by a significant inhibition of their production. IL-10 are characterized by the most significant decrease at the local level and it is less related to IL-4. Local interlacing profile of patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma elderly are characterized by increased level in the tear fluid of anti-inflammatory IL-2, IL-17, IL-8 and lower production of anti-inflammatory IL-10. These local interleukins have the greatest informative value, which is of scientific and practical significance for identifying new mechanisms of development, diagnostics and justification of selective immunotropic therapy of the pathology in question.
