Filter by:Intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide is a well-known method of treatment of diabetic macular edema, however, it has many side effects, most commonly causing cataract and glaucoma. Suprachoroidal route is an emerging route of delivery of intraocular drugs. This is to our knowledge the first prospective study to compare the effect of triamcinolone acetonide delivered via the intravitreal versus the suprachoroidal route in the treatment of diabetic macular edema as regards safety and efficacy.
The investigators aim to evaluate how different timing of anti-VEGF intravitreous injections affect visual acuity (BCVA) in patients with diabetic macular edema who are undergoing cataract surgery; and to evaluate how different timing of anti-VEGF intravitreous affect OCT CSF thickness and total number of postoperative injections in patients with diabetic macular edema who are undergoing cataract surgery.
The objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that following the use of intravitreal dexamethasone implant for the treatment of DME, there will be an observable increase in the capillary density plexus as denoted by the quantitative assessment of the superficial capillary plexus on OCTA, as well as a decrease in size of the foveal avascular zone (FAZ).
The aim of this study is to evaluate the one-year visual outcome and prognostic factors after intraocular injections of ranibizumab under pro re nata treatment regimen for the patients with diabetic macular edema (DME).
This study evaluates the effectiveness of intravitreal Aflibercept (IVA) injection therapy, combined with peripheral laser photocoagulation, in the treatment of macular edema caused by Leber's miliary aneurysm. We believe that our study makes a significant contribution to the literature because to our knowledge, it is the first to report cases, in which IVA injection therapy was used to treat this condition.
To evaluate the efficacy of sequential therapy with intravitreal dexamethasone implant followed by bevacizumab compared with bevacizumab monotherapy for macular edema (ME) secondary to retinal vein occlusion (RVO).
This study will evaluate the effects of add-on carotenoid plus anti-oxidant nutritional supplementation to standard anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy for subjects with center-involved diabetic macular edema
The study will explore the impact of photobiomodulation (PBM), pulsating at frequencies of red (660nm) and near-infrared (810nm)(NIR), concurrent with a ketogenic dietary protocol (serum ketones @ .5 - 2.0 mmol/L) to mediate vascular features of diabetic retinopathy (DR), diabetic macular edema (DME), age-related macular degeneration (AMD), mid-peripheral drusens, visual acuity and retinal disorders. Red and near-infrared light via light-emitting diode (LED) treatment promotes retinal healing and improves visual acuity by augmenting cellular energy metabolism, enhancing mitochondrial function, increasing cytochrome C oxidase activity, stimulating antioxidant protective pathways and promoting cell survival. LED therapy directly benefits neurons in the retina, the lateral geniculate nucleus and the visual cortex; likewise, a ketogenic dietary protocol shows metabolic and neuro-modulatory benefits within the CNS, most notably as treatment for refractory epilepsy. Photobiomodulation has been approved as a non-significant risk (NSR) modality for the treatment of eye disorders.
The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of antecedent intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy vs. Ozurdex in reducing post-cataract surgery related macular edema in patients with pre-existing diabetic macular edema.
after advent of RD photoreceptor degeneration Occurred. This process appears as a incredible and progressive event that will not stop till reattachment of RPE and neurosensory retina happened . Process of degeneration begins from first hours of RD establishment Neuroprotection of photoreceptor following RD is a novel and debatable discussion encountered in recent years . How to stop this phenomena and neuroprotective agent role in this issue are a new interest of researches. In the study investigators are planning to perform a clinical trial to demonstrate the minocycline neuroprotective effect in a double blind design as this impact has been implicated previously in a animal study.
