OPHTHALMIC RISKS DURING SPACE TRAVEL
Abstract: The aim of the following scientific paper is to address the ophthalmic issues and threats as sociated with human exposure to microgravity environments and radiation during space flights. We conducted a review of ophthalmic scientific literature related to space flights, focusing primarily on spaceflight related neuro ocular syndrome (SANS). NASA National Aeronautics and Space Administration) considers SANS, along with other vision disorders, to be one of the major medical challenges that can significantly limit human ability for prolonged stays in space and on celestial bodies other than Earth [32 ]]. In this paper, we also present the latest methods for diagnosing and preventing SANS.
