Purpose: To compare the optical coherence tomographic (OCT) features with clinical and fluorescein angiographic (FA) findings in patients with diabetic retinopathy. Methods: In a retrospective study ophthalmologic examination together with FA and OCT images were obtained from 195 eyes of 110 patients with different stages of diabetic retinopathy an...

Since vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has a strong effect on induction of vascular permeability, VEGF is an attractive candidate gene for development of diabetic macular edema (ME). Among the 378 patients with type 2 diabetes studied, 203 patients had no retinopathy, 93 had non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR), and 82 had prolife...

Background: Diabetic macular edema (DME) is the leading cause of severe visual loss in patients with diabetic retinopathy. This is so despite the fact that argon laser photocoagulation of the macula (M-ALC) has been shown to be beneficial. Recently, it has been suggested that pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) can lead to the resolution of DME and stop th...

We describe our technique to guide laser treatment in diabetic patients with clinically significant macular edema using a digitized fluorescein angiogram system. A pretreatment red-free photograph overlaid on a fluorescein angiogram is processed with the aid of the digitized fluorescein angiogram system in order to include all the important traces ...

EinleitungIn dieser retrospektiven Studie wurde die Inzidenz des diabetischen Makulaödems nach Vitrektomie einer diabetogenen Glaskörperblutung überprüft. Auf Basis der Ergebnisse dieser Studie sollte untersucht werden, ob die Wartezeit von mindestens 6 Monaten bis zur Vitrektomie bei Typ-II-Diabetikern mit Glaskörperblutung, wie von der DRVS empfo...
