Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of intravitreal injections (IVI) of ranibizumab and aflibercept on the choroidal thickness (CT) in patients with treatment-naive diabetic macular edema (DME) before and after monthly IVI. . Prospective monocenter study.

Methods: In this cross-sectional study, all eyes underwent swept-source OCTA (Triton, Topcon, Tokyo, Japan). Macular OCTA scans (3 × 3 mm) were obtained in healthy white Caucasian and black African subjects.
Aims: Diabetic macular edema (DME) frequently presents bilaterally. In case of bilateral retinal disease, the visual impairment (VI) and the visual acuity (VA) are strongly correlated to the better eye. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of ranibizumab intravitreal injections (IVR) on VI in patients with simultaneous VA loss due to DME.

Methods: All consecutive ranibizumab-treated patients with SRD were included in this retrospective study. For each patient with SRD, a patient without SRD with the same baseline best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was randomly included for adjustment on their baseline BCVA.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of ranibizumab in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME).
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of consecutive patients with vision loss due to DME who were treated with ranibizumab. All patients received a loading dose of 3 monthly injections followed by re-treatments on an as-needed basis.
Purpose: To assess the effects of 360-degree laser retinopexy on human corneal subbasal nerve plexus and to investigate correlations among corneal subbasal nerve plexus density, corneal epithelial thickness, and corneal sensitivity.
Design: Prospective, observational, nonrandomized study.
Participants: A total of 15 eyes of 15 patients who underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with 360-degree laser retinopexy for retinal detachment (RD) and 15 eyes of 15 patients who underwent PPV for macular hole (MH) without laser treatment.
