Popis: Amniotic membrane is the innermost part of the fetal and packaging for its exceptional qualities likes to be used in treating many ocular pathologies. Amniotic membrane has improved the ability to treat ocular surface disease. It has unique features like support conjunctival and corneal epithelialization.Retrospective analysis of group patients who underwent amniotic membrane transplantation at the Department of Ophthalmology Faculty of Medicine and UN Bratislava in 2013-2015. We evaluated indications amniotic membrane transplantation, the percentage, the number of transplants and the number of failures and retransplantation of the membrane.In group of 71 patients (amniotic membrane covering defects of conjunctiva and cornea) male patients formed a slight predominance of males in the number of patients a slightly larger preponderance in 38 women (53.5 %) - 52 surgeries (59.09 %) and 33 male (46.5 %) in 36 interventions (40.91 %). The left eye was affected in 40 interventions (45.45 %), 48 interventions were on the right eye (54.54 %). The most common cause application of 30.68 % in 27 eyes was corneal ulcer, bullous keratopathy followed by the 11.36 % in 10 eyes, and the ulcer herpetic keratitis in 9.10 % in 8 eyes. Injury or vulnus penetrans 6.82 % in 6 eyes, ulcers caused by paresis n. facialis 6.82 % in 6 eyes and sicca syndrome 5.68 % in 5 eyes.In 2015 we applied amniotic membrane covering the defect of eyelids after trauma in one patient.Amniotic membrane is the appropriate treatment in a number of diseases of ocular surface when conservative methods of treatment fail. In corneal application can prevent the execution of more aggressive treatment, such as keratoplasty, or to soothe inflammation and keratoplasty is not performed as emergent, but elective.Key words: amniotic membrane transplantation, eye diseases.
