متن کاملDiode laser photocoagulation for diabetic macular oedema.
AIMS This study aimed to investigate whether diode laser irradiation, which is poorly absorbed by haemoglobin, can induce closure of leaking retinal microvascular lesions in the treatment of diabetic macular oedema. METHODS Thirty three eyes with clinically significant diabetic macular oedema were treated with a diode laser. Fundus evaluation before and after treatment included visual acuity,...
متن کاملVariability in photocoagulation treatment of diabetic macular oedema.
PURPOSE To establish whether differences in the assessment of diabetic macular oedema (DME) with either optical coherence tomography (OCT) or stereoscopic biomicroscopy lead to variability in the photocoagulation treatment of DME. METHODS The differences in the assessment of DME with either OCT or stereoscopic biomicroscopy were analysed by calculating the surface areas and the overlap of ret...
متن کاملRetina diabetic Macular oedema
© Touch MEdical MEdia 2013 45 Abstract diabetic macular oedema (dMo) is a leading cause of vision loss in the working-age population worldwide. Numerous early studies suggest an important role for intravitreal anti-VEGF agents such as bevacizumab in the management of dMo. We reviewed manuscripts that had investigated pharmacokinetic, efficacy, safety, dose and frequency of intravitreal bevacizu...
متن کاملDiabetic Macular Oedema
Diabetic macular oedema (DMO) is a major cause of blindness that has an increasing prevalence associated with the general population in diabetes worldwide. In DMO, increased expression of factors including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) disrupts the blood– retina barrier causing leakage and accumulation of extracellular fluid in the macula with resultant loss of vision. Focal and gri...
