Protocol summary

Study aim
Comparison of effect of Conventional and Optical coherence tomography Angiography-guided laser Photocoagulation to treatment of focal diabetic macular edema
Design
Patients referred to the clinic during one year who have focal macular edema due to diabetes and are indicated for treatment, are easily divided into two groups by simple sampling method without blindness and one in between. The number of samples is 40 people who are in two groups of 20. Randomizer software was used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
Tabriz Nikoukari Eye Hospital
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Diabetic patients referred to charity hospital with focal macular edema who are treated according to clinically significant macular edema criteria. Exclusion criteria: History of any retinal laser therapy; history of intraocular injection of anti-VEGF in the previous three months; evidence of severe macular ischemia on angiography ...etl
Intervention groups
After the initial examination and initial BCVA recording and initial OCT, patients are randomly divided into two groups. In the first group, without OCT-A, patients are treated with macular laser. Laser specifications include yellow wavelength duration: 0.1 and power between 80 to 150 and spot size is 50 micrometers, which is done at intervals of one spot in edematous areas. The goal is to change the light color to light gray in the laser-treated areas. In this group, we use the yellow wavelength with a duration: 0.1 and spot size: 50 micrometers with an intensity between 80 to 150 in the areas of microaneurysms. The goal is to change the light gray color in the place of microaneurysms.
Main outcome variables
Visual acuity; Macular thickness

Intervention groups

1

Description
First group: patients undergo macular laser treatment without OCT-A. Laser specifications include yellow wavelength duration: 0.1 and power between 80 to 150 and spot size 50 micrometers, which is done at intervals of one spot in edematous areas. The goal is to change the color light to light gray in the laser areas
Category
Treatment - Surgery

2

Description
Second group: After performing the OCT-A and locating the microaneurysms, laser therapy is performed. In this group, we use the yellow wavelength with duration: 0.1 and spot size: 50 micrometers with an intensity between 80 and 150 in the areas of microaneurysms. Light gray is present at the site of microaneurysms. Patients are followed up three times after the laser, at two-month intervals, including BCVA measurements and OCT. After collecting the data, they are analyzed and statistically analyzed
