Contribution of optical coherence tomography angiography OCT-A in diabetic maculopathy.

Introduction: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) increases the risk of blindness by 25 times. Advanced researchs are justified for better management, leading to the role of Optical Coherence Tomography-Angiography (OCT-A), a new non-invasive imaging technique exploring retinal vascularization.Our purpose is to identify microvascular macular anomalies of DR on OCT-A with qualitative and quantitative evaluation of their impact on retinal vascularization.

Optical coherence tomography angiography vessel density parameters in primary open-angle glaucoma.

Background: Many studies suggest the existence of an alteration of the retinal hemoperfusion in primary open-angle glaucoma. The OCT-A is a novel technique that allows to provide information on retinal microcirculation in a non-invasive way, thus it represents a possible imaging target for the early diagnosis and follow-up of glaucoma. The aim of our work is to evaluate the contribution of vascular parameters provided by OCT-A and their diagnostic abilities in the different stages of primary open-angle glaucoma.

Prognostic factors for visual recovery in idiopathic rhegmatogenous retinal detachment: a prospective study of 90 patients.

Aim: To determine the preoperative clinical and tomographic factors involved in the postoperative visual prognosis of macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.

Methods: We conducted a prospective analytical study of 90 eyes of 90 patients who suffered from macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and were treated in department "A" of "Hedi Raies Institute of Ophthalmology", Tunis. All the patients were examined prior and after the operation, with a thorough interrogation and complete ophthalmological examination.
