Both the thickness and the integrity of the foveal photoreceptor layer are associated with visual function in eyes with persistent cystoid macular edema associated with BRVO.
After resolution of the ME associated with central retinal vein occlusion, visual acuity is closely associated with integrity of the foveal photoreceptor layer.
Observation of CME using 3D OCT enabled visualization of its spatial extent in each retinal layer and discernment of its relationship to the ELM. The use of 3D OCT thus may improve the monitoring of CME progression and its response to treatment.
In eyes with macular edema associated with retinal vein occlusion, improvement in macular function was detected immediately after intravitreal injection of bevacizumab and lasted for at least 6 months.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
