Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation of microperimetric parameters,best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central retinal thickness (CRT) in diabetic macular edema (DME) eyes.Methods It is a prospective,no controlled,open study.Twenty-four consecutive patients (40 eyes) with DME were included.There were 10 males (18 eyes),14 females (22 eyes);aged from 41 to 79 years,with the mean age of (56.84±8.96) years.All the patients were type 2 diabetes,the average duration of diabetes was 8 years.BCVA was evaluated using the international Snellen E vision test chart,and then recorded as logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR).CRT was measured by Cirrus HD-OCT4000.MAIA microperimetric parameters were evaluated,including average threshold (AT) of retinal sensitivity,macular integrity index (MI),fixating points within a circle of 1° (P1) and 2° of radius (P2),bivariate contour ellipse area (BCEA) considering 63％ and 95％ of fixating points (A63,A95),and horizontal and vertical axes of that ellipse (H63,H95,V63,V95).Pearson correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the association between these variables.The independent factor influenced the type of fixation was analyzed by multiple linear regression analysis.Results Strong correlations of logMAR BCVA with CRT (r=0.58,P=0.000),V63 (r=0.44,P=0.004),V95 (r=0.41,P=0.008),MI (r=0.36,P=0.024),AT (r=-0.61,P=0.000),P1 (r=-0.41,P=0.009),P2 (r=-0.38,P=0.015) were found.AT was correlations with P1 (r=0.53,P=0.000),P2 (r=0.51,P=0.001),A63 (r=-0.39,P=0.012),A95 (r=-0.40,P=0.012),V63 (r=-0.53,P=0.000),V95 (r=-0.46,P=0.003),MI (r=-0.50,P=0.001).There was no correlation between AT and CRT (r=-0.21,P=0.190).Forty eyes were included in this study,8 eyes (20％) had stable fixation,14 eyes (35％) had relatively unstable fixation,18 eyes (45％)had unstable fixation.Multiple linear regression analysis showed that fixation classification was independently affected by P 1.Conclusions In DME eyes,logMAR BCVA was positively correlated with CRT,negatively correlated with AT,P1 and P2.There is no correlation between AT and CRT.The fixation classification was independently affected by P 1.
