Pneumatic Vitreolysis using C3F8 Gas in Treatment Naive Patients with Vitreomacular Traction.

Purpose: Evaluation of the effectiveness of pneumatic vitreolysis in disrupting vitreomacular traction in our own cohort of patients.

Methodology: Prospective follow-up of 21 eyes of 18 patients with focal VMT (adhesion width < 1500 µm) who underwent intravitreal injection of 0.3 ml of 100% perfluoropropane between January 2015 and December 2020.

Correlation Between Vitreous Level of Angiogenic Growth Factors and Oxygen Saturation in Retinal Vessels in Diabetic Retinopathy.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate whether there is any association between the levels of the angiogenic growth factors and the vascular oxygen saturation in eyes with diabetic retinopathy.

Methods: The study was designed as a prospective trial. The cohort consisted of 29 diabetic patients with scheduled vitreous procedures (intravitreal injection or pars plana vitrectomy).
