Main directions of work – neuroophthalmology, pathology of the optic nerve and retina. Diseases of the anterior segment of the eye.
In particular, consider the following relevant research areas as:
- Traumatic pathology of the eye.
- Diabetic lesions of the eye;
- Modern surgery and treatment of glaucoma;
- Cataract and refractive surgery;
- Pathology of retina and optic nerve;
- Treatment of the “dry eye”syndrome ;
RESEARCH BY GOVERNMENT ORDER, EXECUTED AND EXECUTES ON THE OPHTHALMOLOGY DEPARTMENT OF NATIONAL MEDICAL UNIVERSITY
- Pathology of retina and optic nerve in patients with diabetes
- The development of modern medical technology for functional recovery through physiotherapy ofpneumatic, lighting and color effects on blood vessels fronto-occipital-parietal partt of visual system;
- Improving the diagnosis and treatment efficacy of vascular and degenerative eye diseases
- Diagnosis and treatment of neuroretinopathy;
- Diagnosis and treatment of neuroretinopathyn, induced by injuries, vascular and endocrine pathology.

The results of the research department.
- Aquired a new data on the epidemiology of injuries of accessory apparatus of the eye (AAE). Based on the analysis tends to increase in the number of serious injuries of AAE from 18,0 ± 0,6% to 22,0 ± 0,6%.Among these the most common injuries – injuries ever. Most often they occur in the able-bodied men young and middle age – 65,8 ± 0,8%.
- Supplemented scientific evidence on the causes that contribute to the emergence of posttraumatic defects AAE: automobile injury – 27,8 ± 1,7%, injury by details of construction tools – 18,3 ± 1,5%, injury by fireworks – 16,0 ± 1,4 % gunshot wounds – 10,0 ± 1,2%, animal bites – 8,3 ± 1,1%.
- Elaborated the program and methodology for assessing areas of traumatic defects of the eye adnexa
- Recommended for implementation in practice of the complex method of treating post-traumatic injuriesof the eye adnexa, which is the differential performance of reconstructive operations on the basis of anatomical features of the structure of the support system of the eye from the position oftalmoplastyky species damaging agents, factors that affect the functional and aesthetic result of reconstruction, the individual computer cybernetic sculpture selection mode depending on the size, depth and location of the defect.
- Recommended for implementation in practice of the way of plastic of hernial ring on the lids and prolapse of the fat cellular of the orbit.

Monograph “Atrophy of the optic nerve: major problems and ways of prevention”. Kyiv, 2016. OP Vitovska, VA Vasyuta, V.M. Konakh.
Abstract: Atrophy of the optic nerve remains the most severe neuroophthalmic disease. That is why an in-depth study of the main trends of prevalence, etiological factors of methods of diagnostics and treatment, as well as the quality of organization of care in this category of patients are extremely relevant issues of modern ophthalmology and social medicine.
