OCT-Based Screening for Early Retinal Changes in Asymptomatic Diabetic Patients

NCT07232225 · Status: NOT_YET_RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 112

Last updated 2025-11-18

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this observational study is to detect early retinal changes in people with diabetes who do not have visual symptoms. The study will use Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and fundus examination to screen for early retinal involvement in diabetic patients.

The main questions this study aims to answer are:

Can OCT detect early retinal changes before symptoms appear in people with diabetes?

Is fundus examination useful for identifying early diabetic retinal changes?

Participants will undergo a comprehensive eye examination, including OCT macular scans and fundus examination, at Assiut Ophthalmology Hospital. No treatment or invasive procedures will be performed as part of this study.

The collected data will help improve early detection and prevention of diabetic retinal complications.

Conditions

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Spectral Domain OCT Imaging

Non-invasive spectral domain optical coherence tomography(SD-0CT) imaging using a NIDEK RS-330 device to measure central macular , parafoveal, and perifoveal thickness and to assess the structural integrity and layers of the retina. This is a diagnostic procedure performed for observation only.
