The Role of Intravitreal Glucose in Macular Thinning Following Surgery for Retinal Detachment or Epimacular Membrane (GLU-MAC)

November 9, 2017 updated by: CHU de Reims

Impact of Intravitreal Glucose Rate in Macular Thinning Following Retinal Detachment or Epimacular Membrane Surgery

Comparison between intravitreous glucose rate and macular thinning measured by Ocular Coherence Tomography (OCT) at 3 months post vitrectomy for retinal detachment or epimacular membrane. Hypothesis : Association between post-operative macular thickness and intravitreous glucose rate

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

Comparison between intravitreous glucose rate and macular thinning measured by OCT at 3 months post vitrectomy for retinal detachment or epimacular membrane. The cohort is divided in 2 groups, one with the thinnest macular measurement under 190µm, and the others above 190µm. We are looking for a correlation between increasing glucose rates and decreased macular thickness.
