Vitrectomy for persistent diffuse diabetic macular edema.
PURPOSE To evaluate the potential benefit of vitrectomy in eyes with persistent diffuse macular edema. DESIGN Prospective randomized comparative clinical trial. METHODS Eyes with diffuse diabetic macular edema for 6 to 18 months, an attached posterior hyaloid, and grid laser photocoagulation performed at least 4 months before were included. Patients were randomized either to a vitrectomy gr...
متن کاملDiode 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 کاملSubthreshold micropulse diode laser treatment in diabetic macular oedema.
BACKGROUND/AIM Enlargement of laser scars after retinal argon laser photocoagulation can give rise to deterioration in visual acuity. Subthreshold micropulse diode laser may decrease this risk. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of subthreshold micropulse diode laser (810 nm) and conventional argon laser (514 nm) photocoagulation for the treatment of clinically significant m...
متن کاملChronic diabetic macular oedema, pars plana vitrectomy or combination of PPV and laser?
Diabetic cystoid macular oedema (DME) is a common cause of visual acuity (VA) decrease. Good anatomical results and VA of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) in cases of macular hole internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling leads to usage of this technique in DME. A favorable result even in a case without vitreoretinal traction leads to conclusion that pathogenesis of this disease is different. We anal...
