Diabetic retinopathy

In proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) is a standard treatment to reduce neovascularization and prevent vision loss. However, PRP may contribute to the formation of an epiretinal membrane (ERM) due to retinal inflammation and scarring. ERM can cause visual distortion and may require surgical peeling if it significantly impacts vision.

In diabetic retinopathy, panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) is a standard treatment for managing peripheral ischemia. Fluorescein angiography (FA) and wide-field OCT Angiography (OCTA) are essential for identifying areas of ischemia. These imaging techniques provide detailed maps of retinal perfusion, guiding effective PRP treatment to prevent further disease progression.

In non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR), Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) can reveal areas of nonperfusion in the deep capillary plexus. These areas indicate compromised blood flow and ischemia, which are critical for assessing disease severity and guiding treatment decisions to prevent progression to more advanced stages.

Telangiectatic capillaries (TelCap) can contribute to persistent diabetic macular edema (DME). En-face imaging helps identify these abnormal capillaries, highlighting their distribution and extent. Focal laser photocoagulation is used to target and seal these TelCaps, reducing edema and improving retinal health.

Images reveal the delicate yet tragic retinal changes in a 31-year-old patient diagnosed with diabetes just 20 days ago. Early signs of diabetic retinopathy may be present, highlighting the urgent need for comprehensive eye care and management. These initial changes underscore the critical importance of regular monitoring and early intervention to preserve vision in diabetic patients.

Ischemic maculopathy in diabetic retinopathy involves reduced blood flow to the macula, leading to vision loss. OCT-angiography (OCT-A) is a non-invasive imaging technique that visualizes retinal blood flow, enabling early detection of ischemic areas. OCT-A provides detailed maps of capillary perfusion, aiding in diagnosis and management.

True color fundus images in a case os tractional retinal detachment due to proliferative diabetic retinopathy treated with pars plana vitrectomy.

Disclosure: All images featured in this post were acquired and analyzed using devices integrated within the Zeiss Retina Workflow. This ensures high-quality, detailed visual data for comprehensive assessment.

True color image shows several microvascular abnormalities, exudates and neovascularization. Fluorescein angiography enhance the identification of the microvascular abnormalities, such as microaneurysms, IRMA’s, ischemic areas and several neovascularizations. Treatment was performed by panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) in one session using Visulas Green VITE (multi spot laser).
