Abstract:AIM: To investigate the effects of intravitreal conbercept combined with peripheral laser photocoagulation for ischemic RVO-ME.
METHODS: A retrospective clinical study. Totally 39 patients(39 eyes)were included in this study since 2014-10 to 2018-11, who were diagnosed ischemic RVO-ME in Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University. There were 14 CRVO and 25 BRVO. All patients were given intravitreal conbercept combined with peripheral laser photocoagulation. BCVA, OCT were examined before and after treatment.
RESULTS:BCVA of 1, 2, 3, 6mo(0.67±0.49, 0.56±0.41, 0.62±0.52, 0.47±0.40)after treatment was significantly improved compared to base line(0.99±0.57)(P<0.05). CMT of 1, 2, 3, 6mo(299.5±188.1, 254.8±127.6, 294.1±174.9, 228.8±64.45μm)after treatment was significantly decreased compared to base line(608.4±214.7μm)(P<0.05). BCVA of 6mo was positively correlated with base line BCVA(r=0.78, P<0.05),while there was no correlation with base line CMT(r=0.25, P=0.13).
CONCLUSION: Intravitreal conbercept combined with peripheral laser photocoagulation is a effective approach for ischemic RVO-ME, which can significantly improve BCVA and decrease CMT.
