Abstract
Description
The article analyzes the clinical effectiveness of a laser with a wavelength of 532 nm. in patients with diabetic retinopathy. The relevance of the study is due to the fact that diabetic retinopathy is currently one of the main causes leading to irreversible blindness.
Relevance. The pathogenesis of vascular lesions in diabetes mellitus (DM) complicated by diabetic retinopathy (DR) is based on microhemodynamic disorders increased platelet aggregation as DR progresses.
Purpose of the study - Evaluation of the clinical effectiveness of treatment of diabetic retinopathy with a laser wavelength of 532 nm.
Materials and metrics. A comparative analysis of the results of laser treatment of patients with diabetic retinopathy was carried out, the study was conducted on the basis of the medical and diagnostic center “OOO A.A.Yusupov ”.A total of 30 patients with a proliferative stage of diabetic retinopathy were examined. All patients received laser coagulation with a 532 nm laser, and a 532 nm Pascal (OPTI Medical) pattern laser was 532 nм used.
Results. The results of the study showed that visual acuity remained stable throughout the entire follow-up period. When analyzing visual acuity, an increase in acuity was noted after the first stage of laser coagulation and its preservation by the third stage, and according to the results of dynamic observation, visual acuity with maximum correction for this period did not change and amounted to 8.85 ± 0.07.
Conclusion. Laser coagulation of diabetic retinopathy is highly effective when using pattern lasers with a wavelength of 532 nm.
