    Abstract:
    Presented is the clinical experience with vision restitution by direct electrostimulation (ES) of lesioned visual nerves in 128 operated patients with chiasmal-sellar diseases (chiasmal-sellar tumors and optico-chiasmatic arachnoiditis). Comparative analysis of ES-treated and control group was performed. Indications for this technique were determined in different forms of the disease depending on its severity and duration. ES showed positive results increasing the reliability and speed of vision restitution in operated patients.
