  • Comparison of visual function and fundus structure outcomes in long-term follow-up of retinopathy of prematurity undergoing anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agents and laser treatment

    ObjectiveTo investigate the prognosis and differences of visual function and fundus structure in retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) undergoing anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agents (VEGF) or laser photocoagulation treatment with long-term follow-up. MethodsRetrospective case control series. From January 2010 to December 2021, A total of 35 children (63 eyes) with ROP who were first diagnosed in Department of Ophthalmology, Peking University People's Hospital and followed up for as long as 5 years were included. Among them, 21 males (36 eyes) and 15 females (27 eyes) were enrolled. The average gestational age (GA) of the children at birth was 29.30±1.77 weeks. Among the included 12 aggressive ROP (A-ROP) eyes and 51 pre-threshold type 1 ROP eyes, no retinal detachment occurred. Each eye received only intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF agents or laser monotherapy after diagnosis, and divided into anti-VEGF group or laser group according to the treatment. Thirty-five eyes of 20 infants were included in the anti-VEGF group and 28 eyes of 15 infants were included in the laser group. GA, birth weight (BW) and postmenstrual age receiving first treatment were compared and no significant difference between the two groups was defined (P=0.844, 0.859, 0.694). The number of A-ROP, pre-threshold type 1 ROP eyes were also compared, and statistically significance can be defined (P=0.005). During the follow-up period, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refractive status, visual field, optical coherence tomography (OCT) and fluorescein fundus angiography (FFA) were performed. The BCVA examination was carried out using the international standard decimal visual acuity chart, which was converted into the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuity for statistics. Refractive status was calculated as spherical equivalent (SE). Comparative observation of 5-year outcomes including BW, GA, fundus examination at the initial diagnosis, and BCVA, refractive status, visual field defect, central foveal thickness (CFT), subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) and abnormality of peripheral retina in FFA were performed between the two groups. Differences between groups were compared using t test or nonparametric test for measurement data, and χ2 test was used for comparison between groups in enumeration data. ResultsFive years after treatment, retinal avascular areas were seen around the eyes in the anti-VEGF treatment group, with a size of 2.32±1.84 optic disc diameters, and 1 eye had fluorescein leakage at the junction of the peripheral avascular areas; eyes in the laser treatment group old photocoagulation spots were seen in the peripheral retina, and no fluorescein leakage was seen. The logMAR BCVA of the eyes in the anti-VEGF treatment group and laser treatment group were 0.15 (0.00, 0.20), 0.10 (0.00, 0.16), respectively; SE were 0.50 (-1.25, 1.31), 0.38 (-4.25, 1.75) D, respectively; mean defect (MD) values of visual field were 2.70 (1.20, 4.80), 4.25 (2.83, 6.98) dB; CFT, SFCT were 225.00±29.31, 287.18±68.56 μm and 237.17±32.81, 279.79±43.61 μm. There was no significant difference in logMAR BCVA, CFT and SFCT between the two groups (P=0.363, 0.147, 0.622); the lower quartile of SE and visual field MD value in the laser treatment group were significantly higher than those in the laser treatment group, but there was no significant difference in the median SE (P=0.109), and there was a statistically significant difference in the median MD value of the visual field (P=0.037). ConclusionsAnti-VEGF agents and laser therapy can achieve similar good visual prognosis for early ROP, and the peripheral visual field can be preserved to a greater extent, however, the peripheral visual field defect in the laser group is more significant than that in the anti-VEGF group. For ROP without retinal detachment, the thickness of the retina and choroid in the fovea is generally normal.

  • The clinical and multimodal imaging characteristics of paracentral acute middle maculopathy

    ObjectiveTo observe the clinical and multimodel imaging characteristics of paracentral acute middle maculopathy (PAMM).MethodsRetrospective case series study. From January 2014 to August 2018, 12 eyes of 12 patients with PAMM diagnosed in Department of Ophthalmology, Peking University People’s Hospital, were included in this study. There were 9 males and 3 females, with the mean age of 57 years. All patients were referred for sudden impaired vision, with or without paracentral scotoma. The patients underwent BCVA, slit lamp examination, fundus photography, FFA and OCT. Simultaneously, OCT angiography (OCTA) was performed in 10 eyes, visual field was performed in 5 eyes, near infrared fundus photography was performed in 1 eye. Clinical and multimodal imaging findings were reviewed and analyzed.ResultsAmong 12 eyes, there were 5 eyes with BCVA 0.05-≤0.1, 4 eyes with BCVA 0.3-0.5, 3 eyes with BCVA 0.6-1.0. There were 1 eye with central rentinal artery obstruction (CRAO), 7 eyes with branch retinal artery obstruction (BRAO). Among them, BRAO with central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) in 1 eye, with non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy in 1 eye, with diabetic retinopathy in 1 eye; old BRAO in 3 eyes; pure BRAO in 1 eye. There were 4 eyes with pure CRVO, including 3 eyes with ischemic CRVO. All eyes demonstrated hyperreflective lesions at the level of the inner nuclear layer and/or outer plexus layer on OCT. En face OCT highlighted the areas with hyperreflectivity corresponding to these lesions. OCTA demonstrated significant deep capillary dropout, abnormal morphology and enlargement of foveal avascular zone.ConclusionHyperreflective band-like lesions at the level of the inner nuclear layer on OCT and middle retinal perivascular hyperreflectivity on en face scan are characteristic in PAMM.

  • Changes of retinal microstructure in lamellar macular hole after vitrectomy

    ObjectiveTo observe the changes of retinal microstructure in lamellar macular hole (LMH) after vitrectomy.MethodsA retrospective clinical observational study. Forty patients (41 eyes) with LMH and received vitrectomy in Ophthalmology Department of Peking University People’s Hospital from January 2014 to September 2018 were included in this study. Among them, 14 patients (15 eyes) were males and 26 patients (26 eyes) were females, with an average age of 67.8±8.6 years. There were 37 eyes with a lens and 4 eyes with an IOL. There were 29 eyes with LMH of tractional type, 7 eyes of degenerative type, and 5 eyes of mixed type. All patients underwent BCVA and OCT examinations. The BCVA examination was performed using the international standard visual acuity chart, which was converted into logMAR visual acuity. The average logMAR BCVA was 0.57±0.27; the mean macular retinal thickness (CRT) was 192.3±108.9 μm, the mean macular thickness (MRT) was 427.5±110.2 μm. Among the 29 eyes of tractional type, there were 17 eyes with retinal cavity, 8 eyes with macular retinoschisis, and 3 eyes with incomplete ellipsoid zone. Among the 7 eyes of degenerative type, there were 5 eyes with lamellar hole-associated epiretinal proliferation (LHEP), 5 eyes with retinal cavity, and 5 eyes with incomplete ellipsoid zone. Among the 5 eyes of mixed type, 2 eyes with LHEP, 1 eye with macular epiretinal membrane, and 4 eyes with incomplete ellipsoid zone. The average follow-up time after surgery was 12.8±5.2 months. Among them, 10 eyes were followed up for equal or greater than 24 months. After the surgery, the same equipment and method before the surgery were used for relevant examination. The changes of BCVA, CRT, and MRT before and after surgery were observed. Continuous variables were compared by t test.ResultsAt the last follow-up, the mean logMAR BCVA was 0.37±0.26. Compared with before surgery, the difference was statistically significant (t=5.98, P<0.01). The mean CRT and MRT were (245.2±90.8) and (347.0±46.7) μm, respectively. Compared with before surgery, the differences were statistically significant (t=-2.49, -5.24; P<0.05, <0.01). CRT and MRT changed greatly within 6 months after surgery, and then tended to be gentle. Among the 3 eyes with incomplete ellipsoid zone of tractional type before surgery, ellipsoid zone recovered in 2 eyes and partially recovered in 1 eye. Among the 17 eyes with retinal cavity and 8 eyes with macular retinoschisis before surgery, there were still 4 eyes with retinal cavity, but all the retinoschisis were disappeared. Among the 5 eyes with retinal cavity of degenerative type before surgery, there were still 2 eyes with retinal cavity and all the eyes with incomplete ellipsoid zone. Among 10 eyes with a follow-up time of equal or greater than 24 months, the macular ganglion cell complex partially atrophied in 6 eyes, and the nerve fiber layer separated in 2 eyes. There was no full-thickness macular hole after surgery.ConclusionFor most LMH patients, vitrectomy can effectively improve the visual acuity and promote the recovery of retinal microstructure.
