Abstract

Diabetes mellitus leads to two major complications, diabetic retinopathy (DRP) and diabetic macular edema (DME), resulting in loss of vision. Diabetes mellitus is the most common cause of loss of vision when all age groups are taken into account. However, this complication can be prevented or delayed with various treatments, especially strict blood glucose regulation. Laser, antiVEGF and corticosteroids are used in the treatment of DME. Laser therapy is applied as focal / grid or panretinal photocoagulation. Nowadays, different lasers are presented to use in the treatment in DRP and DME. Each has different advantages and disadvantages. This article discusses the characteristics of lasers used in the treatment of DRP and DME

Özet

Diyabet, diyabetik retinopati (DRP) ve Diyabetik maküler ödem (DMÖ) olmak üzere iki önemli komplikasyona yol açarak görme kaybı oluşturmaktadır. Diyabet günümüzde bütün yaş grupları dikkate alındığında görme kaybına en fazla yol açan hastalık olmakla birlikte, özellikle sıkı bir kan glikoz regülasyonu başta olmak üzere çeşitli tedavilerle bu komplikasyon önlenebilir veya geciktirilebilir. Tedavide lazer, antiVEGF ve kortikosteroidler kullanılmaktadır. Lazer tedavisi fokal/grid veya panretinal fotokoagülasyon şeklinde uygulanmaktadır. Günümüzde farklı özellikte lazerler kullanıma sunulmuş olup, her birinin farklı avantaj ve dezavantajları söz konusudur. Bu makalede DRP ve DMÖ tedavisinde kullanılan lazerlerin özellikleri tartışılmıştır
