Helmholtz Research Institute - eye clinic, inwhich determined the formation and development of Russian ophthalmology. This multidisciplinary research center is the head institution in the system of the Ministry of Health of Russia on the problems of ophthalmology. He coordinates the scientific and research activities of the leading departments of ophthalmology of Russian medical universities.
Specialists
Helmholtz Eye Clinic, reviews about whichonly the most positive, has more than six hundred employees. 37 employees of the institution are doctors of medical sciences (17 of them are professors), 88 - candidates of medical sciences. The highest qualification category is held by 64 specialists, 11 of whom are "Honored Doctor". Two employees have the honorary title "Honored Worker of Science".
Organizational structure
Out of 57 departments (clinical, scientific,auxiliary) consists of SRI GB them. Helmholtz. The eye clinic includes an emergency and emergency department where patients are treated 24 hours a day. Every year thousands of people help in the department. There is also a children's and adult polyclinic (an annual visit - about 200 thousand people). There are 6 inpatient departments with 300 beds, where up to 9,000 patients receive treatment per year. All people are provided with high-tech medical care - only the latest technologies, medicines, implants are used in the institution.
In addition, the hospital includes athe center of the medicine of catastrophes "Protection", where they help people who have suffered in car accidents, terrorist acts, in the event of natural disasters, to the base of the department of plastic, reconstructive surgery, traumatology and eye prosthetics. The great importance of pediatric ophthalmology is given by the Helmholtz Institute. The eye clinic (children's department) develops surgical techniques and conducts diagnostic studies, many of which are of considerable scientific and practical value and are truly unique.
Establishing an institution
The foundation of the institute was a noblethe idea to open an eye clinic for the poor in Moscow. The initiative belonged to the doctor KL. Adelheim. The construction of the hospital was led by the well-known charity of Varvara Alekseeva. On November 17, 1990, the institution was opened. At first it was named after AA and VA Alekseev. It was the first clinic in the capital, providing free assistance and giving out medicines to all those in need. Initially, only three buildings functioned: the main building (now this is the 1st building), a dwelling house for employees and a building of outbuildings.
The hospital, originally opened for 50 beds, inIn 1903, there were already 72 beds, and the outpatient intake increased from 100 to 150-200 people per day. Even then, the children's department operated in the clinic, which had no analogues in any institution not only in Russia, but also in Western Europe. The staff was also very limited: the head physician (the same director), four ophthalmologists, a pharmacist, 28 support workers. Total - 34 people. But despite such a small number of members, during 1900-1903. in the clinic, more than 2,000 inpatient and 3,000 outpatient surgeries were carried out, about 150 thousand outpatient visits were registered, 2.5 thousand people were cured in a hospital.
Development of the hospital
It was here that his medical activity beganan outstanding ophthalmologist M.I. Averbakh. From 1903 until his death (1944), he was the permanent director and chief physician of the institution. Now on the territory of the institute for the perpetuation of the memory of it is a monument-bust.
During the First World War, without reducing the amount of assistancecitizens, the hospital also helped the wounded. Even in post-revolutionary, full of hardships and devastation, the institution was fully provided with heating, lighting, medicines, and food. The territory gradually expanded, by 1925 the number of beds had increased to 150. The clinic has become, among other things, a base for study: from 1910 to 1919, 2,000 students were trained here. To improve their knowledge in the field of ophthalmology, oculist doctors from all the cities of the country came here. Scientific activity was conducted, conferences were held twice a month.
In 1936, the institution was renamedCentral Research Institute of Ophthalmology, and in 1948 - in the Moscow Research Institute of the G.B. Helmholtz. The eye clinic has received the status of the head state ophthalmologic scientific and practical center. All the following time, the Institute actively developed. In different years, the institution was headed by many famous doctors: from 1903 to 1944. - Averbakh, from 1944 to 1953. - Kolen, from 1954 to 1965 - Roslavtsev, from 1966 to 1986 years. - Trutnev, from 1986 to 1989 years. - Egorova, from 1989 to 2004 - Yuzhakov. From 2004 until now, the hospital is headed by Professor Neroev.

Priority areas
In the hospital, special attention is paid to illnesses,which now have the greatest social significance. From this point of view, a truly unique institution - the Helmholtz Research Institute. The eye clinic solves the priority problems of ophthalmology, which helps prevent vision and blindness. Such problems include glaucoma, damage to the eyes, nearsightedness, oncological pathologies of the eyes in adults and children, congenital diseases of the eye, pathology of the optic nerve and retina, allergic and infectious diseases of the eyes.
Long-term scientific research has allowedto develop new diagnostic methods and technologies for the prevention and treatment of these pathologies. The introduction of them into broad practice made it possible to significantly improve the quality of ophthalmic care for people and raise its level.
Institute development
In 1976, the Moscow Eye ClinicHelmholtz was the first in Russia to create a department for radiology and ophthalmo-oncology to carry out practical and scientific activities to improve the treatment system in children and adults of eye tumors, its orbit and adnexa. The institution uses informative modern methods of high-tech treatment of benign and malignant neoplasms, develops options for the prevention of oncological diseases of the organs of vision.
Helmholtz's Eye Disease Clinic alsosubstantiated the three-factor theory of the origin of myopia, as a result of which new ways of its treatment and pathogenetic prophylaxis were identified, a system for the treatment of amblyopia and strabismus, which includes diplomacy, orthotics, pleoptics.
In the hospital, a medical andsurgical treatment of damage to the visual organs and their severe outcomes, including reconstructive operations, removes by means of specially designed tools and magnets, magnetic and magnetic foreign bodies. With different ophthalmopathology, lasers are used.
The latest techniques
Ophthalmoplastic surgery withhaving in the world analogues of carbon implants, operations with the use of ultrasound, contact correction of vision with the use of soft cosmetic and therapeutic lenses, pathogenetic treatment of hereditary retinal abiotrophies - all this is done by the Helmholtz Research Institute.
The Eye Clinic has been conducting for many yearsorganizational and methodological work on glaucoma: tests different methods of identifying the disease at an early stage, developing the latest methods of medical and surgical treatment. Specialists of the Institute are struggling with chlamydial eye infection, which is currently a serious medico-social problem not only in our country, but also in a number of states in America and Europe.
Research Institute of GB Helmholtz. Eye clinic. Children's department
In the hospital with the help of the latest techniquesDiagnosis and treatment of disabling pathologies in eyesight organs in children: congenital glaucoma and cataract, enterovirus and perinatal uveitis, optic nerve and retinal diseases, retinopathy of prematurity. Based on the genogeography of various hereditary eye diseases in children, the features of the spread of 34-nosological forms were revealed, which became the basis for the creation of medical-genetic interregional registers.
Head of the Department of Eye Pathology in Childrenchildren's ophthalmologist of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation Katargin. This is a unique specialized ophthalmic and pediatric department, where children are provided with medical and diagnostic assistance, and carry out research on a wide range of acquired and congenital diseases. The Helmholtz Children's Eye Clinic is engaged in solving the actual problems of ophthalmology for today, on which the prevention of blindness and blindness in children depends. Here we study the etiology, pathogenesis of severe eye pathologies and develop methods for their treatment. These diseases include, in addition to the above, clouding the cornea, eye anomalies, secondary glaucoma.
Equipment
In the department there are computer complexes forrealization of psychophysical and electrophysiological developments, spectral coherent optical tomography, ultrasonic devices for biomicroscopy and eye scanning, Doppler, fluorescence angiography with the possibility of obtaining multimodal images of eye structures, computer perimetry. All children (without age restrictions) are given an ophthalmological complex examination, which makes it possible to establish the prevalence of the pathological process and pathogenetic factors with high accuracy. The operating unit is equipped with the latest equipment and modern microscopes, which make it possible to produce any kinds of microsurgical high-tech operations.
