Objective:To observe the effect of non-vitrectomy in the treatment of idiopathic macular epiretinal membranes (IMEM).Methods:This study is a randomized controlled trial. From December 2017 to December 2018, 60 IMEM patients (60 eyes) diagnosed in Weifang Eye Hospital were included in the study. BCVA, intraocular pressure (IOP) and OCT were performed in all patients. The BCVA examination was performed using the international standard visual acuity chart, which was converted to logMAR. The CMT was measured by OCT. According to the surgical methods, the patients were divided into non-vitrectomy group and control group, 30 patients (30 eyes) in each group. The age ( t=1.723), logMAR BCVA ( t=1.703), CMT ( t=-0.956), IOP ( t=-1.434) were not significantly different between the two groups ( P=0.090, 0.094, 0.343, 0.157). 23G vitreous cutting system was used in all eyes. The macular epiretinal membranes was removed by non-vitrectomy in the non-vitrectomy group and by vitrectomy in the control group. The relevant examination with the same equipment and methods before the operation at 1 week and 1, 3, 6 months after operation. The time of surgery, the changes of BCVA, CMT and postoperative complications in the two groups were observed comparatively. Variance analysis of repeated measurements was performed for the comparison of BCVA, CMT and IOP after surgery in the two groups. Wilcoxon rank sum test of two independent samples was performed for the degree of vision improvement. The incidence of postoperative complications was compared by χ2 test. Results:At 6 months after operation, BCVA increased in 24 eyes (80%) and unchanged in 6 eyes (20%) in the non-vitrectomy group. Compared with preoperative BCVA, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). BCVA increased in 25 eyes (83.4%), unchanged in 4 eyes (13.3%) and decreased in 1 eye (3.3%) in the control group. Compared with preoperative BCVA, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in BCVA improvement degree after operation ( Z=-0.26, P>0.05). At 6 months after operation, the average logMAR BCVA was statistically significant compared with the preoperative in the non-vitrectomy group ( P=0.002, 0.005) and control group ( P=0.004, <0.001). Visual stability occurred 1 month after operation in the non-vitrectomy group and 3 months after operation in the control group. The effective operative time of the non-vitrectomy group and control group was 4.50±1.41 and 15.50±2.33 min, respectively. The difference of effective operation time between the two groups was statistically significant ( t=-22.12, P <0.05). After surgery, no significant complications were found in the non-vitrectomy group. In the control group, there were 3 eyes with low IOP and 1 eye with macular hole during operation. Conclusions:Non-vitrectomy and vitrectomy have similar effects on IMEM. Non-vitrectomy has short effective operation time, faster recovery after surgery and no obvious complications.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of vitrectomy, inner limiting membrane (ILM) peeling, subretinal injection of compound electrolyte intraocular irrigation solution (CEIIS) and conbercept in the treatment of diabetic macular edema (DME) with hard exudate (HE) (DME-HE).Methods:A prospective clinical study. Thirty-three patients with DME-HE diagnosed by examination in Weifang Eye Hospital from June 2020 to February 2022 were included in the study. Among them, there were 15 males (16 eyes) and 18 females(20 eyes), with the mean age of (62.00±6.54) years. All patients underwent the examinations of best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), scanning laser ophthalmoscope, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and multifocal electroretinography (mf-ERG). Snellen visual acuity chart was used for BCVA examination, which was converted into logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) BCVA for statistic analysis. Macular foveal retinal thickness (CMT) and macular volume (MV) were measured by OCT. The 1 ring P1 wave amplitude density was measured by mf-ERG. The patients were randomly divided into group A and group B, with 17 patients (18 eyes) and 16 patients (18 eyes), respectively. There were no significant differences in age, logMAR BCVA, HE area, CMT, MV, and 1 ring P1 wave amplitude density between the two groups ( t=0.403, 0.972, 0.291, 0.023, -0.268, -0.206; P>0.05). Group A was treated with vitrectomy, ILM peeling, and subretinal injection of CEIIS and conbercept (combined therapy). Group B was treated with intravitreal injection of conbercept (IVC). Follow-up was 12 months after treatment. The changes of BCVA, HE area, CMT, MV, 1 ring P1 wave amplitude density were compared between groups and groups after treatment. The times of injection and complications after treatment were observed. Independent sample t test was used for comparison between the two groups. Results:At 12 months after treatment, compared to before treatment, there were significant differences in logMAR BCVA ( F=14.837), HE area ( χ2=94.522), CMT ( χ2=199.212), MV ( χ2=81.914) and 1 ring P1 wave amplitude density ( F=8.933) in group A ( P<0.05); there were significant differences in CMT ( F=5.540) and MV ( F=7.836) in group B ( P<0.05). Compared between the two groups, logMAR BCVA: 1 week and 6 and 12 months after treatment, the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.231, -2.122, -3.196; P<0.05); HE area: except 1 week after treatment, there were statistically significant differences at other times after treatment ( t=-2.422, -3.107, -3.540, -4.119; P<0.05). CMT, MV, 1 ring P1 wave amplitude density: 12 months after treatment, the differences were statistically significant ( t=-2.653,-2.455, 2.204; P<0.05). During the follow-up period, the injection times of group A and group B were (3.06±1.89) and (5.56±2.04), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-3.815, P<0.05). Macular hole and vitreous hematoma were found in 1 eye in group A and 1 eye in group B. Conclusion:Vitrectomy, ILM peeling, subretinal injection of CEIIS and conbercept to treat DME-HE can effectively remove HE, alleviate macular edema, improve BCVA, and reduce CMT and MV. Combination therapy can reduce the number of IVC re-treatments.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of subretinal fluid extraction combined with intravitreal conbercept and gas injection in treating polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy(PCV)complicated with serous retinal pigment epithelium detachment(sPED).Methods From July 2019 to February 2021,13 patients(13 eyes)with PCV complicated with sPED who were treated with subretinal fluid extraction combined with intravitreal injection of conbercept and gas in the Weifang Eye Hospital were selected.All affected eyes received at least 3 times(once a month)of intravitreal anti-vas-cular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)(ranibizumab)injections before the surgery,and the treatment was ineffective.The changes in best corrected visual acuity(BCVA),central retinal thickness(CRT),macular foveal PED height and width before and 1 week,1 month,3 months and 6 months after the operation were observed,and the intraoperative and postop-erative complications were recorded.Results The BCVA of the affected eyes 1 week after operation was better than that before operation,and the difference was statistically significant(Z=-3.237,P=0.001).The CRT of the affected eyes at 1 week,1 month,3 months and 6 months after the operation were thinner than that before the operation,and the differ-ence was statistically significant(Z=-3.180,-3.180,-3.110 and-3.180,P=0.001,0.001,0.002 and 0.001).The height and width of PED at 1 week,1 month,3 months and 6 months after the operation were lower than those before the operation,and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05).Thirteen eyes received an average of(4.15±1.40)intravitreal injections(ranibizumab)before the surgery,and the treatment duration was(5.92±3.95)months(equivalent to one injection every 6 weeks).During the 6-month follow-up,13 eyes received an average of(2.31±1.97)intravitreal injections(conbercept)(equivalent to once every 10 weeks).Partial correlation analysis showed a weak positive correla-tion between the increase in BCVA and the decrease in CRT 6 months after operation(r=0.416,P=0.203).There was no significant correlation between the increase in BCVA and the changes in PED height and width 6 months after operation(r=0.218,0.209,P=0.520,0.538).At 1 month after the operation,9 eyes had PED recurrence or different degrees of retinal nerve subepithelial effusion,and PED improved after repeated intravitreal injection of conbercept.At 6 months after opera-tion,subfoveal PED completely disappeared in 3 eyes,and the retina was completely reattached.There was still active exu-dation in the retina of 1 eye.No systemic or severe ocular complications occurred in 13 eyes during the follow-up period.Conclusion Subretinal fluid extraction combined with intravitreal injection of conbercept and gas in the treatment of PCV complicated with sPED can safely and effectively reduce CRT,improve PED,and reduce the damage to the retina caused by long-term PED,but it has no significant effect on the improvement of BCVA at 6 months after the operation.
