Diabeticretinopathy(diagnostics, therapy, classification)Veronika Matušková
Diabetes mellitus- definition • Diabetes mellitus is disease with high glucose level (hyperglycaemia) due to absolute or relative lack of insulin produced in beta cells of Langerhans pancreatic islets
Diabetes mellitus (late complications) • retinopathy • nephropathy • diabetic foot • neuropathy
Diabetic retinopathy (definition) • Diabeticretinopathyismicroangiopathy, • HbA1c is very important
Classification of diabetic retinopathy • Nonproliferative DR (NPDR) • Proliferative DR (PDR) • Diabetic maculopathy (M) (each level of diabetic retinopathy may or may not beaccompanied by diabetic maculopathy)
Nonproliferative DR (NPDR) • Beginning • Intermediate • Advanced
Proliferative DR (PDR) • Light • Intermediate • Fullyadvanced VH- vitreoushemorrhage, PRH- preretinalhemorhage, TRD- tractionalretinaldetachmentat center ofmacula
Diabeticmaculopathy(M) • Macular area is a predilection site for edema formation • Microangiopathy leads to ischemia, fluid accumulation, formation of microcysts and cysts • Hard exudates (lipid accumulation) occur on the boundary of ischemic and normal retina
Diabetic makulopathy (classification) • Focal edema • Difuse edema • Ischemic edema (rare)- avascular zone in macula
Macularoedema – laser therapy • Focal • Grid
Macularoedema - anti VEGF • DME withoutreaction to laser therapy • Goodcompensationof DME • Lastingof DME < 2 years
Therapyofdiabeticretinopathy • Gold standard is laser photocoagulationofischemicretinalparts – panretinalphotocoagulation • Laser can‘tbeperformed in centralmacularzone
Surgical therapy of DR • Pars plana vitrectomy- (Machemer, Parel – 1970) – tractionalretinaldetachment, haemophtalmus
