[Ozone holes: prognosis of human photo-ecology. Protection and sensitization]

Photoecological consequence of ozone holes are considered. Analysis of the total UV-radiation intensity and the short-wave edge of atmospheric transmittance depending on ozone content is presented. Characteristic times of some photodamages to skin and eyes have been estimated under ozone content reducing. A role of photosensitizers including drugs in phototoxical effects is discussed. Possible ways of photoprotection are considered.
