Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate central macular thickness with Optical Cohorence Tomography ( OCT ) III in patients who have posterior capsule opacification after Nd: YAG Laser Capsulotomy. METHODS: In Beyoğlu Eye Research and Training Hospital, Nd: YAG Laser Capsulotomy performed 56 eyes of 52 patients ( 23 male, 29 female) who had posterior capsule opacification. Before and after capsulotomy ( 1. week, 1. month and 3. month) patients’ examinations were done and OCT measurements were obtained.. RESULTS: 29 right and 27 left eyes evaluated. Mean age was 63,5 ± 17,9 ( 16 – 85 ). The mean energy used during capsulotomy was 47.54 ± 25.09 milijoule ( mj ) ( 10.5 – 109. 2 ), and the mean energy per laser spot was 1.3 ± 0.2 mJ. Mean laser shots were 34.73 ± 13.33 ( 7- 88 ). There was no statistically significant difference between preoperative and postoperative central retinal thicknesses and volumes. CONCLUSION: In patients who have posterior capsule opacification, Nd: YAG Laser Capsulotomy do not cause retinal edema and changes in retinal thickness and findings measured by OCT.

Özet

AMAÇ: Arka kapsül kesafeti olan olgularda Nd: YAG lazer arka kapsülotomi sonrası Optical Coherence Tomography ( OCT ) III ile makula bulgularının değerlendirilmesi.YÖNTEMLER: Beyoğlu Göz Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi I. Göz Kliniği Ön Segment- Refraksiyon Birimi’nde arka kapsül kesafeti bulunan 52 hastanın (23 erkek,29 kadın) 56 gözüne Nd: YAG lazer arka kapsülotomi uygulandı. Kapsülotomi öncesi, kapsülotomi sonrası 1. hafta,1. ay ve 3. ayda olguların muayeneleri ve OCT çekimleri yapılarak bulgular değerlendirildi.BULGULAR: : Nd: YAG lazer kapsülotomi işlemi; 29 sağ, 26 sol göze uygulandı. Ortalama yaş ~ 63 ( 16 – 85 ) idi. Uygulanan lazer gücü ortalama 207.54 ± 138.09 joule,ortalama atış sayısı 84.73±63.33 idi. Uygulama öncesi ve sonrası 1.hafta, 1.ay ve 3. ayda total makuler volume, 1 mm, 3 mm ve 6 mm’deki santral makula kalınlıkları arasında istatistiki olarak anlamlı fark bulunamadı.SONUÇ: Arka kapsül kesafeti olan olgularda Nd: YAG lazer kapsülotomi OCT ile tespit edilebilen makula değişikliklerine yol açmamakta, uygulanan atış sayısı ve toplam enerji makula ödemi için risk faktörü oluşturmamaktadır.
