Focal Laser Photocoagulation in Non-Center Involved Diabetic Macular Edema
This study was performed to evaluate the functional and anatomic outcomes of focal macular laser photocoagulation in eyes with non-center involved macular edema (non-CI ME). Forty-nine eyes of 43 patients with non-CI ME were included. Focal macular laser photocoagulation was conducted on twenty-nine eyes of 25 patients, while 20 eyes of 18 patients with non-CI ME were followed without treatment...
متن کاملIs Laser Photocoagulation Treatment Currently Useful in Diabetic Macular Edema?
Diabetic macular edema treatments have changed in recent years after the introduction of intravitreal injections of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (ranibizumab, bevacizumab, pegaptanib and the most-recent introduction of aflibercept), corticoids (triamcinolone or dexamethasone), and the sustained delivery fluocinolone acetonide vitreous inserts. All these new drugs are becoming ...
متن کاملInfliximab for Diabetic Macular Edema Refractory to Laser Photocoagulation
OBJECTIVE Because many patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) do not respond to focal/grid laser photocoagulation, the only currently approved treatment, alternatives are needed. Based on encouraging preliminary findings, we aimed to assess efficacy and safety of the anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) monoclonal antibody infliximab in this condition. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This was a s...
متن کاملEffects of sub-Tenon’s capsule triamcinolone acetonide injection combined with microaneurysm photocoagulation on diabetic macular edema
PURPOSE To compare the effects of sub-Tenon's capsule triamcinolone acetonide (STTA) injection to that of STTA injection combined with microaneurysm photocoagulation (MAPC; STTA + MAPC) on eyes with diabetic macular edema (DME). PATIENTS AND METHODS The medical records of 138 eyes of 138 patients with DME treated by either STTA or STTA + MAPC were reviewed. The degree of DME was determined by...
