Diagnostic value of OCT and fundus angiography in patients with high myopia and macular degeneration / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

ABSTRACT

AIM: To investigate the significance of optical coherence tomography ( OCT ) and fundus fluorescein angiography ( FFA) in patients with high myopia macular degeneration. ●METHODS:A total of 62 cases ( 104 eyes ) of high myopia macular degeneration patients with OCT and FFA data from Department of Ophthalmology in Jan. 2014 to Sep. 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. ● RESULTS: Highly myopic macular degeneration patients with FFA type, OCT classification had significant correlation (r=0. 599, P0. 05). The higher FFA type, the smaller ametropia degree, BCVA values, the longer ocular axial length. FFA type patients with foveal thickness determination values were not statistically significant (P>0. 05). ● CONCLUSION: High myopic macular degeneration patients with OCT and FFA results have a certain degree of correlation. However, it′s benefit to combine both of them for further diagnosed and treatment of patients.
