Correlation 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 کاملMicroaneurysms cause refractory macular edema in branch retinal vein occlusion
Intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) agents can treat macular edema (ME) in branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). However, refractory ME, the mechanism of which is not well elucidated, occurs frequently. Sixty-six eyes with ME secondary to BRVO were enrolled in this retrospective observational case-control study. Twenty eyes received a sub-Tenon's capsule injection of tri...
متن کاملRelationship between Outer Retinal Layers Thickness and Visual Acuity in Diabetic Macular Edema
PURPOSE To investigate the correlation of outer retinal layers (ORL) thickness and visual acuity (VA) in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME). METHODS Consecutive DME patients seen at the Retina Clinic of The University of Hong Kong were recruited for OCT assessment. The ORL thickness was defined as the distance between external limiting membrane (ELM) and retinal pigment epithelium (RP...
متن کامل[Subclinical diabetic macular edema and mild non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy: data correlation with the retinal thickness analyzer (RTA)].
PURPOSE To measure, using the retinal thickness analyzer, the mean foveal thickness and the mean perifoveal thickness values on patients suffering from mild non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy without clinically detectable macular edema (classified by the ETDRS study), and compare them with healthy individuals. METHODS Observational analytical retrospective case-controlled study, on a samp...
متن کاملRetinal hemodynamics in early diabetic macular edema.
The objective of this study was to establish the baseline retinal hemodynamic characteristics of stratified groups of diabetic patients at increasing risk for the development of diabetic macular edema (DME). Group 1 had 50 control subjects, group 2 had 56 diabetic patients without clinically visible retinopathy, group 3 had 54 diabetic patients with microaneurysms and/or hard exudates within tw...
