Correlation between optical coherence tomography, multifocal electroretinogram findings and visual acuity in diabetic macular edema

Correlation between Visual Acuity and Optical Coherence Tomography-Measured Retinal Thickness in Diabetic Macular Edema

Background and Objective: Diabetic macular edema (DME) is one of the common complications of diabetes which significantly accounts for preventable visual impairment and blindness. Central macular thickness (CMT) is a feature found in DME patients. This study aims to determine the relationship between optical coherence tomography (OCT)-measured CMT and visual acuity (VA) in patients with DME bef...

Multifocal Electroretinogram in Diabetic Macular Edema; Correlation with Visual Acuity and Optical Coherence Tomography

PURPOSE To evaluate multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG) changes in eyes with diabetic macular edema (DME) and investigate any possible correlation with optical coherence tomography (OCT) features and visual acuity (VA). METHODS Twenty-nine right eyes of 29 subjects with DME due to non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy and 30 eyes of 30 normal subjects were evaluated. All patients underwent ...

Correlation between optical coherence tomography and multifocal electroretinogram findings with visual acuity in retinitis pigmentosa

INTRODUCTION Our purpose was to study the correlation between the macular morphology and function in eyes with retinitis pigmentosa (RP). METHODS Sixty-six eyes from 33 patients with RP and with different visual acuity (VA) were studied using optical coherence tomography (OCT) and multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG). Correlation analysis was performed between VA, macular thickness, mfERG amp...

Optical Coherence Tomography Findings in Diabetic Macular Edema

Retinal Thickness and Visual Acuity in Diabetic Macular Edema: An Optical Coherence Tomography-Based Study.

OBJECTIVE To determine the relationship between foveal (retinal) thickness and visual acuity in diabetic macular edema through optical coherence tomography (OCT) mapping software. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional descriptive study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY The Retina Clinic of Al-Shifa Trust Eye Hospital, Rawalpindi, from August 2011 to August 2012. METHODOLOGY Eighty eyes of 68 patients w...
