Continuous mode large spot transpupillary thermotherapy for retinopathy of prematurity

Large-spot subthreshold transpupillary thermotherapy for chronic serous macular detachment

PURPOSE To report the effect of subthreshold transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT) in treating serous detachment of the neurosensory retina secondary to chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CCSC). METHODS Seven eyes from five patients with CCSC, persistent serous detachment of the neurosensory retina and a clinical course of between 12 and 60 months were treated. All eyes received large-spo...

Transpupillary Diode Laser Retinal Photocoagulation for the Treatment of Retinopathy of Prematurity: Experience in Southern Iran

Transpupillary thermotherapy for atypical central serous chorioretinopathy

BACKGROUND Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) has been traditionally treated with laser photocoagulation. We thought that transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT) utilizing a lower temperature than that of conventional laser photocoagulation might minimize permanent retinal and choroidal damage. Studies suggest that undesirable effects on vision due to TTT are minimal even if it is applied to fov...

[Transpupillary thermotherapy and age-related macular degeneration].

Transpupillary thermotherapy (TTT) has been proposed over the last a few years for the treatment of subfoveal occult choroidal neovessels resulting from age-related degeneration (AMD) when they are symptomatic and associated with exudation. Several pilot studies have shown how this technique can decrease or slow down the progression of exudation related to choroidal neovessels. Based on these p...
