Abstract
A method of successive approximations is developed for obtaining solutions of the basic equations of the WKB method in the three-dimensional case. Explicit expressions are found for the first approximations to the energy levels and wave functions of the bound states of a particle in a three-dimensional potential well which were obtained in zeroth approximation in [1, 2].
