  • Pathological changes of branch retinal artery occlusion detected by optical coherence tomography

    Objective To observe the pathological changes of branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO) by optical coherence tomography (OCT). Methods Twenty-six eyes of 26 patients with BRAO diagnosed in our Center from December 2002 to June 2005 were examined by OCT. The intervals of disease onsets and OCT examinations in all patients were within 2 weeks. The OCT scan modes were horizontal or vertical lines, and the locations of OCT scanning were macular area and the posterior pole of retina. The retinal thicknesses of macular foveola were measured and the macular thicknesses in different obstructive locations were compared using ANOVA analysis. The correlations of visual acuity and retinal thickness were analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. Results Among the 26 eyes with BRAO, 9 eyes with temporosuperior artery occlusion, 8 eyes with temporoinferior artery occlusion, 7 eyes with arteriole occlusion and 2 eyes with retinal ciliary artery occlusion were observed. The pathological characteristics of OCT images of BRAO were increased retinal thickness and reflectivity in the obstructive locations, and widened dark area of photoreceptors (edema), while there was no obvious foveal edema were observed. The retinal images in other locations were normal. The average macular foveal thickness in the groups of temporosuperior artery occlusion, temporoinferior artery occlusion and retina arteriole occlusion were (161.11plusmn;17.66) mu;m, (148.38plusmn;18.48) mu;m and (136.29plusmn;14.94) mu;m, respectively (F=4.137,P=0.031,Pgt;0.01). There was no correlation of visual acuity with retinal thickness in 24 eyes (r=0.285,P=0.176,Pgt;0.01). Conclusion OCT could display the pathological changes of retinal tissue of BRAO in vivo. The increases of macular foveal thicknesses in BRAO eyes are not so obvious, and no correlations could be seen between visual acuity and macular foveal thickness. OCT is indicated on the old patients and the patients with systemic diseases for whom FFA is contraindicated. The unique characteristics of pathological changes of BRAO indicated by OCT images supply the objective signs for the instant clinical diagnosis. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2007, 23: 173-176)

  • Fundus photochromy and optical coherence tomography in epimacular membrane of traumatic eyes following virtreoretinal surgery

    Objective To evaluate the clinical application value of ocular fundus photochromy and optical coherence tomography (OCT) in epimacular membrane of traumatic eyes following vitreorential surgery. Methods Ocular fundus photochromy and OCT were used to observe the morphological changes of macula in 139 consecutive patients with unilateral ocular trauma after vitreoretinal surgery between July 2003 and September 2004. Results At the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th, and 12th month postoperatively, epimacular membranes were found in 5, 8, 17, 19, 20 patients, respectively by using photochromy; and in 7, 10, 20, 26, 27 patients, respectively by using OCT. There was no significant difference in epimacular membrane between photochromy and OCT(chi;2=0.173,Pgt;0.05). The results of OCT showed that epimacular membranes completely adhered to the macular region in 8 patients(29.63%), and retinal neurosensory layer swelled in 12 patients(44.44%)with the fovea thickness of (290.18plusmn;288.05) mu;m. Conclusion Ocular fundus photochromy and OCT are helpful in observing and discovering the epimacular membrane after virtreoretinal surgery of the patients with traumatic retinal detachment during the early and long-term follow-up period; and OCT can provide important information of the structue and position of these epimacular membranes hence to conduct to appropriate treatment. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2006, 22: 236-238)

  • Relationship between retinal thickness at the macular area and axial length in myopia

    Objective To evaluate the correlation between retinal thickness (RT) at the macular area and the axial length (AL) in myopia. Mehtods Optical coherence tomography (OCT) was used to detect the RT at the macular fovea, and at the superior, nasal, inferior, and temporal side of the fovea and parafovea area. The AL of the examined eye was measured by IOL master measuring machine, and the correlation between RT at the macular area and the Al was evaluated. Results The minimum RT in the macular area in the eyes with myopia was (150.90plusmn;22.10)mu;m.The retina at the temporal side of parafovea was the thinnest. The average RT in the areas around the fovea was negatively correlated with the AL, and there was no correlation among the minimum RT, the mean RT at the fovea, and the AL of eye. Conclusions As the AL of eye increases, the RT at the parafovea decreases, while the minimum and the average RT at the fovea remain unchanged.  (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2006, 22: 397-399)

  • Changes of macula in patients with high myopia after phacoemulsification

    ObjectiveTo observe the changes of macula in patients with high myopia after phacoemulsification. MethodsIn 20 patients with high myopia with ocular axial length≥27 mm, optical coherence tomography (OCT) was performed on the operative and contralateral eyes 1 week before and after monocular phacoemulsification, respectively, and the OCT images of macula of the operative eyes were observed and compared.ResultsOne week before and after phacoemulsification, the mean macular fovea thickness of the patients with high myopia was (131.6±16.37) μm and (189.75±45.69) μm, respectively, with a significant difference (t=2.805, P=0.01). Simultaneously, the mean macular fovea thickness of the contralateral eyes was (133.5±15.12) μm and (133.5±14.63) μm, respectively, with a non-significant difference (t=1.367, P=0.853). In 20 operative eyes 1 week after phacoemulsification, 3 had vitreous strand around the macula with retinal thickening, 1 had retinoschisis in macular area, and 2 had obvious retinal thickening with slight retinal edema.ConclusionRetinal thickening occurs in the patients with high myopia after phacoemulsification. Traction of retina by vitreous strand or subclinical retinoschisis may occur in some patients.(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2005,21:90-92)

  • Application of coherence tomography in the course of idiopathic macular hole

    ObjectiveTo investigate the course of the idiopathic macular hole (IMH) clinically diagnosed as at stage Ⅰ-Ⅳ by optical coherence tomography (OCT), and analyze the relationship between the posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) and the course of IMH. MethodsHadn′t undergone any operation, periodical OCT were performed on 72 eyes of 58 patients with IMH at stage Ⅰ-Ⅳ confirmed by Gass standard and the features of OCT images.ResultsThe longest follow-up period was 43 months (average 13.4 months), and the examine times of OCT on each eye were between twice to 10 times (average 4.7 times). During the followup period, 23 eyes were in stage I in which 9 (39.1%) developed to stage II and 2 had recovered normal curve of fovea after PVD; 19 were in stage II in which 13 (68.4%) developed to Ⅲ-Ⅳ and 1 had closed hole after PVD; 11 were in stage III in which 5 (45.5%) developed to stage IV and 1 had partly closed hole 12 months later. The images of OCT showed that the process of macular hole was consistent with the course that vitreous depart from retina from the circumference of fovea till entire posterior detachment.Fifteen affected eyes in this series of patients had undcrygong surgical treatment due to serious progression of IMH in follow-up period. ConclusionsThere is a close relationship between the formation and development of macular hole and the occurrence of PVD. OCT can show the progress of the macular hole directly and offer an important technique in diagnosis, classification and surgical treatment of IMH. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2005,21:79-82)

  • Relationship between the macular histomorphological changes and the prognosis of the visual acuity in eyes with retinal detachment

    ObjectiveTo invesitigate the relationship between the macular histomorphological changes and the prognosis of the visual acuity (VA) in eyes with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD).MethodsOptical coherence tomography (OCT) was performed on 39 patients (39 eyes) with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. According to the macular neurepithelial configuration displayed by OCT, the patients were divided into 3 groups: neurepithelial edema group, neurepithelial detachment group, and neurepithelial cystoid degeneration group. The time of retinal detachment, pre- and post-operative VA, and macular neurepithelial thickness OCT images were observed and analyzed statistically.ResultsThere was no difference of pre-operative VA among the three groups (P>0.05). Significant differences of post-operative VA, time of retinal detachment, and neurepithelial thickness were found (P<0.05). The differences of time of retinal detachment and neurepithelial thickness between neurepithelial degeneration group and cystoid degeneration group were significant (P<0.05) except the postoperative VA (P>0.05).ConclusionsThe time of retinal detachment and post-operative VA in patients with retinal detachment relate to the neurepithelial thickness detected by OCT. When the duration of retinal detachment becomes longer, the macular neurepithelium becomes thicker, the histomorphological changes increase, and the post-operative VA decreases. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2005,21:83-85)
