Measurement of Choroidal Neovascular Area in Age-Related Macular Degeneration using Modified Otsu’s Thresholding Method
Introduction: Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is one of the most important causes of irreversible blindness in the developed world and prevents the affected person from performing simple tasks such as reading, driving and facial recognition. In the AMD, new blood vessels grow underneath the retina in a process called choroidal neovascularisation (CNV). There ...
متن کاملTreatment of Neovascular Age Related Macular Degeneration Associated with Pigment Epithelial Detachment: An Update
Ali Dirani1* and Ghassan Cordahi1 1Department of Ophthalmology, University of Montreal, Montreal, Quebec, Canada Retinal pigment epithelial detachment (PED) is defined as an anatomical separation of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) from the underlying Bruch layer [1]. Serous and vascularized (fibrovascular) PED are commonly present in eyes with neovascular AMD. According to some studies, up...
متن کاملIntravitreal ranibizumab for symptomatic drusenoid pigment epithelial detachment without choroidal neovascularization in age-related macular degeneration
BACKGROUND The aim of our study was to evaluate the functional and anatomic outcomes of intravitreal ranibizumab for the treatment of symptomatic drusenoid pigment epithelial detachment without choroidal neovascularization in age-related macular degeneration. METHODS This was a prospective, single-center, uncontrolled, interventional pilot study. Six consecutive eyes (six patients) with druse...
متن کاملClinical features of drusenoid pigment epithelial detachment in age related macular degeneration.
AIM To analyse clinical features of drusenoid pigment epithelium detachment (PED) in age related macular degeneration. METHODS 61 eyes of 32 patients with untreated drusenoid PED were followed for an average of 4.6 years (range 1-17 years). Drusenoid PED was defined as (1/2) disc diameter (DD) of confluent soft drusen under the centre of the macula. All patients underwent visual acuity measur...
متن کاملHigh Dose Intravitreal Bevacizumab for Refractory Pigment Epithelial Detachment in Age-related Macular Degeneration
PURPOSE Intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) is the first choice of treatment for age-related macular degeneration. However, quite a few eyes treated using conventional dose anti-VEGF (CDAV) have persistent pigment epithelial detachment (PED) on optical coherence tomography. This study investigated the efficacy and safety of high dose anti-VEGF (HDAV) for refractory ...
