Abstract. The article presents the data of a comparative analysis of methods for measuring the diameter of the cornea in various ophthalmopathologies in preschool children. The total number of children was 50 (100 eyes) with various ophthalmopathology. The studies were conducted in the Department of Ophthalmology of TashPMI. The indicators obtained by measuring the diameter of the cornea with a surgical compass were taken by us as a basis, as the most objective method of remote measurement of the diameter of the cornea. The average value was 10.48±0.97 mm. These indicators were compared with the indicators obtained by measuring with a ruler and special “glasses” offered by us. Special “glasses” for measuring the diameter of the cornea give reliably accurate indicators, are safe and convenient for use in pediatric ophthalmology. And also, they make it possible to dynamically monitor the progression of the process and archive the data obtained

Keywords: corneal diameter, ruler, special "glasses", compass Castroviejo, ophthalmopathology in children, remote measurement of corneal diameter
