The paper describes results of investigation of immunologic reactivity and analysis of outcomes after surgical treatment of patients with chronic anterior uveitis (14 persons), the Fuchs' syndrome (16 persons), pseudoexfoliative syndrome (25 persons) as compared with a control group (50 persons). Immunocorrection of patients with the Fuchs' syndrome was attempted, and analysis of the immunologic status before and after treatment by means of sodium nucleinate immunomodulator and traditional therapy was made. Cataract extraction was performed separately or in combination with sinusotrabeculectomy in case of uveal glaucoma. Immunodeficient syndrome was revealed in patients with chronic uveitis and the Fuchs' syndrome as well as the most severe course of the operation and the postoperative period in patients with chronic uveitis. Considering the important role of immunologic status of the body in the postoperative period, it is recommended to use immunomodulators in a complex treatment of patients with complicated cataract and glaucoma and diseases of the uveal tract.
