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 کاملEffect of Intravitreal Triamcinolone Acetonide on Improvement of Visual Acuity and Resolution of Diffuse Diabetic Macular Oedema
Subclinical inflammation occurring in diabetic retinopathy is supposed to be, at least partly, the cause of breakage of blood-retinal barrier. It may be expected that anti-inflammatory drugs have favorable effect on the course of diabetic macular oedema. The aim was to investigate the effect of intravitreally applied triamcinolone acetonide (TA) on resolution of diffuse diabetic macular oedema ...
متن کاملDiabetic Macular Edema Before and After Intravitreal Triamcinolone Injection
PURPOSE To compare intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVT) versus natural course in refractory diabetic macular edema. METHODS In a prospective interventional case series, twenty five eyes with refractory DME which had been allocated to the sham group of a previous clinical trial underwent new examination and optical coherence tomography about 9 months after their first enrollment. Twenty ...

AIM To evaluate factors influencing change in visual acuity (VA) after intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide as treatment of exudative age related macular degeneration (AMD). METHODS This prospective, interventional, comparative non-randomised clinical case series study included 94 patients (99 eyes) showing progressive exudative AMD with occult (n = 61 eyes), minimally classic (n...
