Objective: To estimate the effects and safety of suprachoroidal triamcinolone acetonide injections in treating patients with resistant diabetic macular oedema.
Methods: The quasi-experimental study was conducted at the Isra Postgraduate Institute of Ophthalmology, Al-Ibrahim Eye Hospital, Karachi, from November 2019 to March 2020, and adult patients of either gender with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus. Central macular thickness, intraocular pressure and best corrected visual acuity were recorded at baseline, and the patients were followed up at one and three months after the suprachoroidal triamcinolone acetonide injection and post-intervention parameters were compared.
Objective: To assess proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) and to describe the difference in angiographic representation of new vessels (NVs) and Intra retinal microvascular abnormalities (IRMA) on optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).
Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was performed at ISRA Postgraduate Institute of Ophthalmology, Karachi, from March 2018 to September 2018. Forty-two eyes of 21 patients with history of diabetes mellitus (DM) were examined.
Objective: To determine the diagnostic accuracy of non-mydriatic fundus camera for the detection of diabetic retinopathy.
Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted at Al Ibrahim Eye Hospital, Karachi, from January to May 2015, and comprised patients with type 2 diabetes who were screened for diabetic retinopathy. Single 45° fundus image focussed at macula was obtained and labelled using non-mydriatic fundus camera by a trained optometrist.
