Optical coherence tomography of the vitreoretinal interface in macular hole formation.
AIMS To image the vitreoretinal interface and provide further information on the pathogenesis of idiopathic macular hole formation. METHODS Prospective recruitment of 80 eyes of 41 consecutive patients referred with a diagnosis of idiopathic full thickness macular hole (FTMH) to a teaching hospital retinal clinic. Both eyes of each patient underwent optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging ...
متن کاملMacular hole formation: new data provided by optical coherence tomography.
OBJECTIVE To establish the sequence of events leading from vitreofoveal traction to full-thickness macular hole formation. METHODS Both eyes of 76 patients with a full-thickness macular hole in at least 1 eye were examined by biomicroscopy and optical coherence tomography. RESULTS Sixty-one fellow eyes had a normal macula. Optical coherence tomograms showed central detachment of the posteri...
متن کاملOptical Coherence Tomography Pathologic Findings in the Vitreoretinal and Macular Interface
The vitreous body is bounded posteriorly by the retina and is adherent to it. Abnormalities in the adhesion between the vitreous and the macula, or vitreoretinal interface, are involved in the pathogenesis of several macular conditions. Optical coherence tomography is a noninvasive in vivo ophthalmic imaging technique, which allows for a better understanding and improved diagnosis of disease pr...
متن کاملCorrelation 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...
متن کاملVitreoretinal interface abnormalities in diabetic macular edema and effectiveness of anti-VEGF therapy: an optical coherence tomography study
Purpose To study vitreoretinal interface (VRI) abnormalities in diabetic macular edema (DME) and the influence of these on the effectiveness of intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy. Methods VRI status and central retinal thickness (CRT) were evaluated using line and 3D-reference scans obtained using spectral domain-optical coherence tomography RTVue-100 before a...
