Abstract

Central retinal vein occlusion can result in severe visual acuity loss that is a common retinal vascular disorder. There are two distinct laser treatments: Grid and scatter panretinal photocoagulation. Grid laser aims to reduce macular edema and improve visual acuity. The aim of scatter panretinal photocoagulation is to reduce VEGF burden by ablating peripheral ischemic retina and to prevent the development of neovascularization in the retina, iris, and angle or to provide regression if developed. Laser photocoagulation is currently performed in combination with intravitreal anti-VEGF and intravitreal steroid treatments, but not alone in retinal vein occlusion.

Özet

Retinal ven tıkanıklığı ciddi görme kaybına neden olan ve sık görülen retinal damar patolojisidir. Retinal ven tıkanıklığında başlıca grid ve panretinal fotokoagülasyon olmak üzere iki tip lazer tedavisi vardır. Grid lazer tedavisinin amacı makula ödemini azaltarak görme keskinliğinde artış sağlamaktır. Panretinal fotokoagülasyonun amacı non-perfüze retina alanlarını kapatıp VEGF yükünü azaltarak, retina, iris ve açıda neovaskülarizasyonun gelişmesini önlemek veya gelişmiş ise gerilemesini sağlamaktır. Günümüzde lazer fotokoagülasyon retinal ven oklüzyonunda tek başına değil, seri intravitreal anti-VEGF ve intravitreal steroid tedavileri ile birlikte uygulanmaktadır.
