Abstract:
Objective To study the effect and safety of posterior Tenon subtenon triamcinolone acetonide (TA) injection as treatment for diffuse diabetic macular edema.Methods Forty-two patients (54 eyes) with diffuse diabetic macular edema were diagnosed by fundus fluorescence angiography and optical coherence tomography,posterior Tenon subtenon injection of TA 20 mg for treatment.All eyes were examined before treatment and the different time points after treatment by testing visual acuity,intraocular pressure,thickness of macular fovea.Results Preoperative visual acuity was 0.26 ± 0.15,postoperative was 0.29 ± 0.13,0.34 ± 0.14,0.43 ± 0.16,0.41 ± 0.13,0.38 ± 0.17 at 2 weeks,1 month,2 months,3 months and 6 months,respectively,visual acuity improved significantly,there was no significant difference between 2 weeks postoperative and preoperative (P ＞ 0.05),the remaining time points compared with preoperative differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01).Preoperative thickness of macular fovea was (473.9 ±121.8) μ m,postoperative was (462.6 ± 93.3) μ m,(342.8 ± 87.1) μ m,(302.6 ± 67.8) μ m,(321.1 ±79.1) μ m,(355.2 ± 47.6) μ m at 2 weeks,1 month,2 months,3 months and 6 months,respectively,there was no significant difference between 2 weeks postoperative and preoperative (P ＞ 0.05),the remaining time points compared with preoperative differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01).The intraocular pressure at 2 months were significantly higher than preoperative (P ＜ 0.05).No other complications were observed.Conclusion Posterior Tenon subtenon injection of TA as treatment for diffuse diabetic macular edema is safe and effective,which can inject repeatly.
