Eye of eye diseases inflammatory diseases occupy the first position in the structure (34,5- 40,2 %).
Aim of the research was to investigate anterior segment eye and eyelids purulent-inflammatory diseases' etiology structure; microorganisms' sensitivity to antibiotics. Material and Methods. The bacteriologic examinations' results of 43 patients with anterior segment eye and eyelids purulent-inflammatory diseases were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients were observed in Vinnitsa or Zhytomyr Region Clinical Hospitals during 2013 year.
Results. Etiology structure of purulent-inflammatory diseases of anterior eye segment and eyelids included gram-positive (89.7 %), in particular: S. epidermidis (55.2 %), S. aureus (20.8 %), S. viridans (5.2 %), E. faecalis (3.4 %), S. heamo-liticus (1.7 %), S. pneumoniae (1.7 %), C. hofmannii (1.7 %) and gram-negative bacteria Acinetobacter spp. (5.2 %), E.coli (3.4 %), E. gergoviae (1.7 %). The Staphylococcus spp. sensitivity to penicillins (50.0-78.1 %), cephalosporins (50.0—71.9 %), macrolides (50.0—58.3 %) was low. It was variable to ciprofloxacin (66.7-78.1 %); ofloxacin (75.0—87.5 %), moxyfloxacin (75.0—84.4 %), gentamycin (66.7—90.6 %), tobramycin (66.7—93.8 %). Gram-negative bacteria had low sensitivity to antibiotics.
Conclusions. Gram-positive microorganisms are cause inflammatory diseases of anterior segment eye and eyelids in most cases (89.7 %) and have variable sensitivity to antibiotics. Gram-negative bacteria has low sensitivity to the majority of antibiotics.
