Diode laser photocoagulation for diabetic macular oedema.
AIMS This study aimed to investigate whether diode laser irradiation, which is poorly absorbed by haemoglobin, can induce closure of leaking retinal microvascular lesions in the treatment of diabetic macular oedema. METHODS Thirty three eyes with clinically significant diabetic macular oedema were treated with a diode laser. Fundus evaluation before and after treatment included visual acuity,...
متن کاملCorrelation of a scanning laser derived oedema index and visual function following grid laser treatment for diabetic macular oedema.
AIM To correlate change of an oedema index derived by scanning laser tomography with change of visual function in patients undergoing grid laser photocoagulation for clinically significant diabetic macular oedema (DMO). METHODS The sample comprised 24 diabetic patients with retinal thickening within 500 micro m of the fovea. Inclusion criteria included a logMAR visual acuity of 0.25, or bette...
متن کاملVariability in photocoagulation treatment of diabetic macular oedema.
PURPOSE To establish whether differences in the assessment of diabetic macular oedema (DME) with either optical coherence tomography (OCT) or stereoscopic biomicroscopy lead to variability in the photocoagulation treatment of DME. METHODS The differences in the assessment of DME with either OCT or stereoscopic biomicroscopy were analysed by calculating the surface areas and the overlap of ret...
