Filter by:Lacunae in Knowledge No study is available in literature regarding visual field impairment in proliferative diabetic retinopathy comparing conventional double frequency Nd:YAG panretinal photocoagulation with PASCAL panretinal photocoagulation AIMS & OBJECTIVE 1. To compare visual field impairment in conventional double frequency Nd: YAG panretinal photocoagulation with PASCAL panretinal photocoagulation. 2. To examine the effect of these modalities of laser on macular edema 60 eyes of proliferative diabetic retinopathy will undergo humphery visual field analysis,and optical coherence tomography before and after panretinal photocoagulation
Diffuse Macular Edema is the main cause of visual disorders in diabetic patients. Diclofenac is a cheap drug available in most of treatment centers.in animal studies the safe dosage is identified that can be used in diffuse diabetic macular edema for treatment. in this study, we are going to compare the effect of intra vitreal injection of Diclofenac and Bevacizumab in primary treatment of diffuse diabetic macular edema.
This study investigates the hypothesis that ranibizumab injection given into the eye is an efficacious and safe treatment option applied for swelling of the macula (site of sharp vision) in diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to determine if intravitreal infliximab is a safe and effective treatment for macular edema secondary to diabetes.
Cystoids macular edema (CME) is one of the most common causes of low vision due to uveitis. The treatment for reducing the intra-ocular inflammation can decrease the macular edema. In some patients, CME persists even after inflammation control, and additional treatment is needed for better vision. Oral steroid, periocular and intravitreal Triamcinolone are the principles in treatment, but some complications like cataracts and increased ocular pressure have been seen. Diclophenac is a non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug that improves the vision and decreases the macular thickness by slowing down the prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) ending in vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibition. In this study, the investigators are going to compare the therapeutic affect of intravitreal Diclophenac and Triamcinolone in persistent uveitic cystoids macular edema. Since diclophenac is a cheap and accessible drug in all curative centers it could be applied instead of Triamcinolone.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the change in macular edema and the absolute change in visual acuity following intravitreal administered injections of Bevacizumab (Avastin®) or Ranibizumab (Lucentis®) compared with Triamcinolone (Volon A®) in patients with clinical significant diabetic macular edema. The investigators monitor the change in macular edema measured with standard optical coherence tomography (OCT) and the absolute change in visual acuity analyzed by standardized charts according to the protocol used in the Early Retreatment in Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS).
Objective: To compare micropulse 810nm diode laser photocoagulation versus argon laser photocoagulation for treatment of diabetic macular edema. Micropulse laser technique will be determined by an initial clinical trial comparing single versus double density laser photocoagulation techniques for treatment of diabetic macular edema.The single density is based on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) grid photocoagulation technique and the double density increases the number of spots. Methods: Patients with diabetic macular edema will be assigned to receive either micropulse 810nm diode laser photocoagulation or argon laser photocoagulation therapy. First, in a smaller clinical trial, patients will be assigned to single or double density micropulse 810nm diode laser to determine best strategy for this therapy. Visual acuity, fundus photographs and fluorescein angiography, and optical coherence tomography measurements , autofluorescence and mfERG were obtained at baseline and at 1, 3 and 6 months and 12 months.
This is an investigator-sponsored trial (IST), an open-label pilot study, assessing the safety and biologic activity of bromfenac in subjects with diffuse DME refractory to laser.
Efficacy duration of triamcinolone acetonide (steroid) for treatment of diabetic macular edema. Furthermore, dosage dependency of triamcinolone acetonide comparing a high dosage versus a low dosage.
Bevacizumab is an anti-VEGF agent used in approved for use in metastatic colorectal carcinoma (FDA Approved). This study analyzes the safety and efficacy of off-label Intravitreal Injection of bevacizumab (Avastin) for CNVM, Macular oedema due to diabetic retinopathy, vascular occlusion and other retinal disorders.
