ABSTRACT

@#AIM: To observe the therapeutic efficacy of intravitreal injection of conbercept for macular edema in different types of retinal vein occlusion(RVO).<p>METHODS: Retrospective cohort study of 79 patients 79 eyes in different types of RVO(BRVO54; non-ischemic CRVO 16; ischemic CRVO 9)received intravitreal injection of conbercept. After 3mo injection of conbercept(IVIC), a pro re nata(PRN)strategy was adopted. The best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA,LogMAR)and central macular thickness(CMT)were recorded at baseline and at 1d, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6mo post-treatment.<p>RESULTS: At 6mo, in different types of RVO, the BCVA were improved significantly than baseline(0.22±0.23 <i>vs</i> 0.70±0.32; 0.24±0.19 <i>vs</i> 0.73±0.27; 1.20±0.37 <i>vs </i>1.92±0.23; all <i>P</i><0.05). CMT were decreased significantly than baseline(199±27 <i>vs </i>422±162μm; 195±16 <i>vs </i>550±158μm; 231±55 <i>vs</i> 583±152μm; all <i>P</i><0.05). In three different treatment time groups, CMT in different types of RVO were decresed than the baselineat different time points after treatment(<i>P</i><0.05), and there was no difference between groups(<i>P</i>>0.05). In three different treatment time groups, BCVA in BRVO and non-iCRVO were improved than the baseline in three groups(<i>P</i><0.05), but in iCRVO there were little improved in >90d group.<p>CONCLUSION: Intravitreal injection of conbercept can effectively treat macular edema caused by RVO. Early and timely treatment of anti-VEGF may help improve and maintain the stability of long-term vision, and delayed anti-VEGF treatment may reduce the space for the improving vision.
