PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of oral calcium dobesilate (Doxium) on macular thickness in clinically significant macular edema (CSME). METHODS Overall, 71 eyes of 40 patients with non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy and clinically significant macular edema were included. All patients were received laser treatment for macular edema. Coherence optical tomography was used to determine the re...

BACKGROUND The major cause of visual impairment in diabetic patients is macular edema. The failure of laser photocoagulation in a large subgroup of patients with clinically significant diabetic macular edema has prompted interest in other treatment methods. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of an intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide for clinically significa...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) on macular morphology and thickness in eyes with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) and without clinically significant macular edema. METHODS This was a prospective study of 76 eyes from 68 patients diagnosed to have PDR without clinically significant macular edema. Baseline and post ...

Purpose: To assess the association between the features of optical coherence tomography (OCT) and fluorescein angiography (FA) in clinically significant diabetic macular edema. Materials and Methods: It was an observational, cross-sectional study conducted at Upgraded Department of Ophthalmology, S.M.S Hospital and Medical College, Jaipur. It involved 181 eyes (100 patients) with clinically sig...

 Background: Diabetes is a common metabolic disorder leading to the development of many complications, among which diabetic retinopathy and macular edema are the most significant. These complications can contribute to blindness if not diagnosed or treated properly, and several studies have been conducted to evaluate the methods for the prevention or slowing down their progression. Ther...

PURPOSE To evaluate the macular thickness changes in diabetic macular edema after meal. METHODS In this prospective case series, macular thicknesses of diabetic patients with clinically significant macular edema (CSME) were measured after 7 h of fasting and repeated 2 h after breakfast. RESULTS Thirty six eyes of 20 diabetic patients were evaluated. The mean central subfield thickness (CST)...
