Time to fellow eye involvement in patients with unilateral diabetic macular oedema.
Eye (Lond)
September 2023
Objective: To examine the time to onset of disease in the fellow eye of patients with unilateral DMO in routine clinical practice and to identify risk factors for development of bilateral DMO.
Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Participants: One hundred forty treatment-naive patients 18 years or older with unilateral DMO presenting to Cole Eye Institute between January 2012 and July 2021.
Anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Treatment Patterns and Outcomes in Retinal Vein Occlusion in Routine Clinical Practice.

November 2022
Background And Objective: To characterize treatment patterns for retinal vein occlusion (RVO)-related macular edema (ME) in routine clinical practice and its impact on long-term best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central subfield thickness (CST).
Patients And Methods: Retrospective study of 365 eyes with branch RVO (BRVO) or central/hemi-RVO (CRVO/HRVO)-related ME between 2003 and 2020. Regression analysis identified factors associated with maintenance injection interval (MII).

Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to determine the average time patients with panretinal photocoagulation (PDR) take to develop vision-threatening retinopathy (VTR) complications after treatment, alongside identifying significant risk factors.
- - Records from 220 patients who underwent complete PRP were reviewed, revealing that the average duration from PRP to VTR was about 1.25 years, with specific risk factors like age, Black race, and diabetic foot disease (DFD) significantly impacting this timeline.
- - The findings suggest that DFD and Black race are important indicators for predicting the onset of VTR within 4 years post-PRP treatment, helping healthcare providers make better decisions in clinical practice.
