Filter by:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Anti-VEGF instead of intraoperative fan-shaped photocoagulation in BRVO combined with vitreous hemorrhage.
The purpose of this study is to verify the efficacy and safety of intravitreal injection of conbercept in patients with macular edema (ME) caused by branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO).
To investigate the efficacy of laser photocoagulation combined with ranibizumab intravitreal injection in macular edema (ME) secondary to branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) in long term.
The efficacy of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy for branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) is shown, but its effect on retinal sensitivity is not fully investigated. The purpose of this study is to compare the changes in retinal sensitivity after ranibizumab therapy or combination therapy of ranibizumab and laser photocoagulation in eyes with BRVO.
This interventional study will evaluate the retinal vascular dynamics associated with Intravitreal Aflibercept Injection (IAI) therapy in eyes with diabetic macular edema (DME) or macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion (RVO). Ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography and optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography will be performed at multiple timepoints to assess the changes in retinal vascular leakage, ischemia, and vascular abnormalities throughout the study duration and compare these alterations to baseline.
Monthly intravitreal ranibizumab (IVR) during the first 6 month had great effect for macular edema with branch retinal vein occlusion (BVO) both in visual and anatomical outcome. It is expected that similar results could be obtained by less frequent IVR. The purpose of this study is to investigate if IVR by PRN is as effective as by monthly. In addition, the investigators are going to study the relationship between macular edema and the size and location of retinal non-perfusion area.
The goal is to conduct a 5-year prospective, randomized controlled trial to test an innovative, community-based intervention using posterior and anterior fundus photography of the optic nerve and macula and intraocular eye pressure measurements to improve access and utilization of eye care to detect, treat, and manage high-risk patients with previously undiagnosed glaucoma and other eye diseases. Research shows that subject failure to attend follow-up eye care appointments diminishes any previous benefits of community screenings for glaucoma. Greater adherence to follow-up visits can reduce glaucomatous blindness.
The authors investigated the consecutive change of retinal vessel's diameter in affected eye and fellow eye of Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of intravitreal ranibizumab by determining the pathogenesis of macular edema, which cause a direct effect on visual function. In particular, we focus on the correlation between the treatment effectiveness of ranibizumab and the role of the cytokines involved in the cause of macular edema.
Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is the second leading cause of retinal vascular disease in patients older than 50 years.The prevalence varies from 0.7% to 1.6% in the literature. Visual recovery depends on ischemic damage of the retina, the occurence of macular edema (ME) and the development of neovascular glaucoma. The occurence of ME is the main reason for visual loss and frustrates visual recovery among patients with both central or branch RVO. Therapeutic options that have been used and discussed over the years are the treatment with anticoagulants, fibrinolytics, corticosteroids, acetazolamide and isovolemic haemodilution. Furthermore, surgical options like vitrectomy and radial optic neurotomy were used. Panretinal photocoagulation and grid pattern photocoagulation had established as additional tool to induce chorioretinal anastomosis. Nevertheless, the effectiveness and the evidence of these different treatment options could not be verified and remains mostly unknown. Nowadays, intravitreal anti-VEGF application had become the treatment of choice for ME secondary to RVO. Multi-center studies have already shown the effectiveness of anti-VEGF treatment to reduce intraretinal fluid and retinal hemorrhages (BRAVO, CRUISE). Unfortunately, often high numbers of re-treatments become necessary over the years. In our knowledge, there are no reports showing more than 3 years treatment effects of antiangiogenic drugs in patients with BRVO. However, the results of treatment effect longer than 3 years are important, as the mean age < 70 years with an onset of BRVO has been estimated in about 60% of all cases. In addition, most patients with regard to the application of anti-VEGF treatment in real clinical setting, there is only rare experience concerning need of optimum time duration for follow-up at the departments. Hence, the present study aimed to evaluate the long-term clinical outcomes, safety and therapeutic benefit of a flexible dosing regimen of intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy in patients with ME secondary to BRVO.
