Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of conbercept combined with whole retina laser photocoagulation in the treatment of ischemic central retinal vein occlusion (iCRVO) with macular edema (ME) and its effect on visual prognosis and retinal blood flow.Methods:A prospective study was conducted on 80 patients (80 eyes) with iCRVO and ME admitted to the Chongqing Aier Eye Hospital from January 2019 to November 2020. They were randomly divided into two groups using a random number table method, with 40 patients in each group. Among them, the observation group was treated with conbercept combined with whole retina laser photocoagulation, while the control group was treated with whole retina laser photocoagulation alone. We compared the clinical efficacy and safety between two groups. Before and after treatment, the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central macular thickness (CMT), and retinal blood flow parameters [retinal superficial capillary plexus (SCP) blood flow density, and macular foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area] were examined in both groups of patients. The Low Vision Quality of Life Scale (CLVQOL) was used to evaluate the quality of life of patients before and after treatment.Results:The total effective rate of the observation group was 95.00%(38/40), which was higher than 77.50%(31/40) of the control group ( P<0.05). The BCVA at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months after treatment in both groups was significantly higher than that before treatment in this group, while the CMT was significantly lower than that before treatment in this group (all P<0.05). The BCVA of the observation group at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months after treatment was significantly higher than that of the control group at the same time point (all P<0.05), while the CMT of the observation group at 3 months after treatment was significantly lower than that of the control group at the same time point (all P<0.05). There were no significant changes in SCP blood flow density and macular FAZ area before and after treatment in both groups (all P>0.05). The CLVQOL scale scores and total scores at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months after treatment in the observation group were significantly higher than before treatment (all P<0.05). After 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months of treatment, the scores and total scores of the CLVQOL scale for distant vision, movement and light perception, and regulatory ability in the control group were significantly higher than those before treatment (all P<0.05); At 1 and 3 months after treatment, the scores of reading, fine work, and daily living ability on the CLVQOL scale were significantly higher than those before treatment (all P<0.05). The CLVQOL scale scores and total scores of distant vision, movement and light perception, reading and fine work in the observation group at 1 and 3 months after treatment were significantly higher than those in the control group at the same time point (all P<0.05); The regulatory ability dimension score of the CLVQOL scale at 3 months after treatment was significantly higher than that of the control group at the same time point (all P<0.05). There was no serious adverse event in both groups during the treatment. Conclusions:Conbercept combined with whole retina laser photocoagulation for iCRVO with ME can safely and effectively improve patients′ vision, promote ME regression, and improve their quality of life. Although the impact on retinal blood flow is not significant, it is beneficial for delaying the progression of the disease.
