Abstract

Purpose: toevaluate the treatment outcomes of intravitreal Ranibizumab injection for diabetic macular edema in Ha Noi Eye Hospital. Subjectives and Methods: 30 eyes of 30 patients treated with intravitreal Ranibizumab injection for diabetic macular edema included. Methods: prospectively interventional non-control study. Results: Pattern macular edema on OCT at baseline: 13/30 (43,3%) eyes with diffuse macular edema, 9/30 (33,0%) eyes with cystoid macular edema, 8/30 (26,7%) eyes with serous retinal detachment. The visual acuity improvement(logMAR) 3 month vs baseline is statistically significant (p<0,001). The reduction of CRT from baseline to 3 month later is statistically significant, p<0,001. Conclusion: Visual acuity and CRT improvedsteadilyafter 3 intravitreal Ranibizumab injections for diabetic macular edema: best corrected visual acuity (logMAR) improve from 0,9 at baseline to 0,64 after 3 month (p<0,001); and CRT reduces from 453,3 µm at baseline to 314,8 µm after 3 month, (p<0,001).
