Traitement de la retinopathie diabetique oedemateuse [a propos de 51 cas]

ABSTRACT

Diabetic oedematous retinopathy may provoke central vision loss in patients. 51 cases were studied and classified into focal macular oedema and diffuse macular oedema cystoid or not. They were treated with focal photocoagulation when lesions were seen and with grid perifoveol photocoagulation when oedema was diffuse or cystoid. Results were good. We obtain at least visual acuity stabilisation. But results depend also on other extra-ocular factors as associated hypertension and renal sufficiency
