Summary

The aim of this study is to compare subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) and the visual status before and after intravitreal injection of ranibizumab in diabetic macular edema (DME) with the use of 3D-OCT by enhanced depth spectral-domain imaging (EDI-OCT) with fixating other factors.

PROCEDURE

Intravitreal injection of ranibizumab

These patients were received three intravitreal injection of ranibizumab with one month interval. 3D-OCT by enhanced depth spectral-domain imaging (EDI-OCT) was done preoperative and a month after every injection. All patients recieved topical anesthesia as 0.5 mg/0.05 ml , ranibizumab is injected 4 mm (3.5 mm in Pseudophakia) from the limbus intravitreally (in the lower temporal quadrant) by a needle (27gauge).
