  • The objective evaluation of the postoperative changes of anatomical structures in macular diseases

    Objective To evaluate different methods in determ ining the postoperative changes of anatomical structures in macular diseases. Methods Thirty-one eyes of 31 cases of macular diseases, were studied among them there were 15 eyes with idiopathic macular hole (IMH),and the others included 8 eyes with macular epiretinal membranes(ERMs), 4 eyes with age relate d macular degeneration(AMD) and 4 eyes with idiopathic submacular neovasculariza tions(SRNV). All cases were examined with retinoscope or retinogra phy, fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) and optical coherence tomography (OCT ) pre-and postoperatively. Results Funduscopy showed that all of the 15 IMHs were closed after operation, but OCT showed th at among them 2 affected eyes still had partial retinal detachment at the macular hole edge in one quadrant and the sensory layer in macular area became thinner in 1 affected eye. FFA revealed damage of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) in 5 cases. As for the ERMs and SRNV, funduscopy could n ot identify wether they were completely removed or not after operation. FFA ind icated that SRNV and SRNV were completely removed and the damage of RPE.OCT discovere d that the ERMs and SRNV were completely removed and the sensory layer became th inner in 3 eyes. Conclusion The combination of funduscopy , FFA and OCT can get the whole view of macular diseases and their postopera tive anatomical evaluation. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2001,17:33-36)
