Article Synopsis
  • The objective of the study was to assess changes in the ganglion cell complex using optical coherence tomography (OCT) after patients received an intravitreal injection of bevacizumab (Avastin) for diabetic macular edema.
  • Conducted as a quasi-experimental study at Lahore General Hospital from March 2017 to April 2018, patients were carefully selected to exclude those with other eye conditions affecting OCT measurements.
