Maher A. The efficiency of the modified method of treating patients with diabetic macular edema with intraretinal cysts

The object: diabetic macular edema with intraretinal cysts. Objective: improve the efficiency of treatment patients with diabetic macular edema with intraretinal cysts which differentiated by using ranibizumab as monotherapy or modified method, which is acombination of intravitreal ranibizumab with selective laser coagulation of retinal pigment epithelium in the macular area, depending on the severity of the pathological process on the visometry. Methods: optical coherence tomography, fluorescein angiography,visometry, perimetry, ophthalmoscopy, tonometry, rheoophthalmography and ophthalmoscopy, OCT and perimeter. Refined scientific data about the nature of diabetic macular edema area and shown that the presence of intraretinal cysts does not determine the severity of the pathological process. A new model for prediction of positive results in patients with diabetic macular edema with the presence of intraretinal cysts depending on the initial morpho-functional state of the macular area. Supplemented by scientific knowledge about the impact of intravitreal ranibizumab eye on hemodynamics. Results of work are introduced into the SI "The Filatov Institute of Eye Diseases and Tissue Therapy Of NAMS of Ukraine", Odessa Regional Clinical Hospital, City Clinical Hospital №4 of Odessa. Sphere of application - medicine, ophthalmology.
