Effects of Laser Physical Parameters on Lesion Size in Retinal Photocoagulation Surgery: Clinical OCT and Experimental Study
Introduction: The aim of the present study was to determine burn intensity in retinal laser photocoagulation based on laser parameters; wavelength, power, beam size and pulse duration, using Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), fundus camera, physical eye model and computer simulation in a clinical study.Materials and Methods: Participants were 10 adult patients between 50-80 years with prolifer...
متن کاملProliferative diabetic retinopathy. Regression of optic disc neovascularization after retinal photocoagulation.
Photocoagulation is an accepted method of local treatment for proliferative diabetic retinopathy. It has been shown that 73 25 per cent. of eyes with proliferative diabetic retinopathy have new vessels on the optic disc at the initial visit (Taylor and Dobree, I970). These vessels cannot be treated directly by photocoagulation. Aiello, Beetham, Balodimos, Chazan, and Bradley (I969) treated all ...

متن کاملEffect of pregnancy on diabetic retinopathy.
The incidence of progression of diabetic retinopathy during pregnancy is unknown and its proper management uncertain. In this study, 55 insulin-dependent diabetic patients under strict glucose control were followed throughout pregnancy with serial retinal examinations by ophthalmoscopy and photographs. Nineteen patients had minimal or background retinopathy and 7 had untreated proliferative cha...
متن کاملSevere diabetic retinopathy at presentation in a young man.
A 22 year old man presented with a severe ischaemic diabetic retinopathy and, in spite of photocoagulation therapy, was blind in one eye 16 months after diagnosis. Four similar cases of aggressive diabetic retinopathy are reviewed. There is increasing evidence that a small group of young men with insulin dependent diabetes (IDD) may develop severe diabetic retinopathy at, or soon after, diagnosis.
متن کاملMinimally Traumatic Millisecond Lasers
etinal laser photocoagulation was first described 45 years ago and remains the standard of care for many retinal diseases. The Diabetic Retinopathy Study established panretinal photocoagulation as an effective treatment for proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Conventional retinal laser photocoagulation for diabetic retinopathy, retinal vascular applications, and the treatment of retinal breaks ...
