Objective: To
evaluate the effects of diode laser photocoagulation and intravitreal
ranibizumab (IVR) treatments
on axial lenght and refractive status development in the
treatment of retinopathy of
premautrity (ROP).
Materials
and methods: The study included 82 eyes of 41 patients who were 1
year
adjusted age, underwent
primarily diode laser photocoagulation or 0.25 mg/0.025 ml
IVR. Axial lenght (AL) and
spherical equivalent (SE) parameters were compared.
Results:
Patients divided into two groups. Group 1 had 34 eyes of 17 patients who
underwent IVR treatment and group 2 had 48 eyes of 24 patients who underwent diode laser
photocoagulation treatment. In group 1, AL were detected 19,86 ±1,104mm in right eyes and
19,73 ±1,062mm
in left eyes. In group 2, AL were detected 19,90± 0,83mm in right eyes and 19,86 ± 0,842mm in left eyes
(p>0.05). In group1 and 2, SE values were detected 0.44±2.053D and -0.02±3.07D in right eyes and 0.59±2.063D and -0.17±2.8 in left eyesD,
respectively ( p>0.05). There was no statistically significant differences
between two groups about AL and SE values.
Conclusion: Myopia is seen higher in patients with ROP than healthy patients. Although using anti vascular
growth factor in ROP has been increased last years, diode
laser photocoagulation is the gold standart therapy. In our study we compared
the effects of diode laser photocoagulation and IVR on AL and SE. We did not
find any statistically significant difference. Further evaluation is needed.
