Intravitreal melatonin for the prevention of radiation retinopathy: a step beyond bevacizumab.
Int J Radiat Biol
January 2025
Department of Radiation Oncology, Faculty of Medicine, Hacettepe University, Ankara, Turkey.
Purpose: Intravitreal bevacizumab has been utilized to mitigate radiation retinopathy, yet the potential role of intravitreal melatonin for its prevention remains unexplored. This study aims to evaluate and compare the efficacy of intravitreal melatonin and bevacizumab in preventing radiation retinopathy in an experimental animal model.
Materials And Methods: Twelve healthy male New Zealand white rabbits ( = 24 eyes) received a single 3000 cGy irradiation dose in both eyes.
Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography Evaluation of a Dexamethasone Intravitreal Implant in the Crystalline Lens: A Case Report.
Int Med Case Rep J
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Centro Hospitalar Universitário de São João, Porto, Portugal.
Purpose: Ozurdex is a dexamethasone intravitreal implant approved for the treatment of macular edema secondary to branch or central retinal vein occlusion, non-infectious uveitis affecting the posterior segment of the eye, and diabetic macular edema.
Patients And Methods: We report a case of an accidental injection of the implant into the crystalline lens, successfully managed by surgery afterwards. The case description is supported by Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography (AS-OCT) images.
The Effects of Anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Loading Injections on Retinal Microvasculature in Diabetic Macular Edema.
Transl Vis Sci Technol
December 2024
Department of Ophthalmology, Kyung Hee University Medical Center, Kyung Hee University, Seoul, Korea.
Purpose: To evaluate changes in the retinal microvasculature using widefield swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) following three anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) loading injections for diabetic macular edema (DME).
Methods: Thirty-four treatment-naïve patients with DME received an initial three loading injections, followed by injections on an as-needed basis. Macular ischemia was evaluated based on the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area, perfusion density, and vessel density on a 3 × 3-mm SS-OCTA image.
Early postoperative bevacizumab for preventing neovascular glaucoma in phacovitrectomy for proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
Sci Rep
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Hanyang University Guri Hospital, Hanyang University College of Medicine, Gyongchun-ro 153, Guri, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea.
To evaluate the effectiveness of postoperative intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) in preventing neovascular glaucoma (NVG) and identify associated risk factors in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) undergoing phacovitrectomy. Patients with PDR who underwent phacovitrectomy were enrolled and categorized into two subgroups based on their postoperative treatment regimen: one group received IVB within 2 months following phacovitrectomy (Group 1); the other did not receive IVB during this period (Group 2). A comparative analysis evaluated the distinguishing characteristics of the two groups after 1:1 propensity score matching.
