Grid laser photocoagulation in the treatment of serous avascular pigment epithelial detachment in age-related macular degeneration.
Purpose: Describe the outcomes of thermal laser photocoagulation in three cases of retinal pigment epithelium detachment associated to age-related macular degeneration. Methods: Three patients with avascular retinal pigment epithelium detachment were treated with green diode laser photocoagulation. Mild macular grid laser application, similar to the treatment of diabetic macular edema was perfo...
متن کاملNon-responsiveness to intravitreal aflibercept treatment in neovascular age-related macular degeneration: implications of serous pigment epithelial detachment
The prognosis of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) has been improved by anti-vascular endothelial growth factor treatments, including intravitreal aflibercept (IVA) treatment. However, many patients remain incurable. In this study, we retrospectively evaluated non-responsiveness to IVA monotherapy at 12 months in 133 eyes of 133 AMD patients. Sixty-two patients were initially t...
متن کاملSerous Pigment Epithelium Detachment Associated with Age-Related Macular Degeneration: A Possible Treatment Approach
To evaluate the effects of intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (TA) as a monotherapy of serous Pigment Epithelial Detachment (PED) associated with AMD (Age-Related Macular Degeneration), this study has been performed. Seventeen patients (19 eyes) with serous PED associated with AMD were observed. All patients received 0.1ml (4mg) of intravitreal TA. The mean follow-up period was 18 months. Re-...
متن کاملEffectiveness of Intravitreal Injection of Ranibizumab for Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration with Serous Pigment Epithelial Detachment.
BACKGROUND We sought to observe the effectiveness of intravitreal injection of ranibizumab in treating neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) with serous pigment epithelial detachment (sPED). MATERIAL/METHODS A retrospective, noncomparative case series was performed. Twenty-3 eyes of 23 patients with sPED secondary to nAMD who had received intravitreal injections of ranibizumab w...
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...
