Abstract

Introduction: We aimed to evaluate the impact of foveal eversion on treatment response and persistent diabetic macular edema (DME)., Methods: The study was designed as interventional and prospective. DME eyes were treated with ranibizumab and/or dexamethasone (DEX) implants, or with fluocinolone acetonide (FAc) implants. FAc-treated eyes were eventually retreated by additional ranibizumab injections. Main outcome measure was the relationship between foveal eversion and both clinical outcome and persistent DME., Results: Sixty-eight DME eyes (68 patients) treated by anti-VEGF/DEX and 50 FAc-treated eyes (50 patients) were recruited. The follow-up was 16 ± 3 months. The anti-VEGF/DEX group and FAc-treated group were statistically matched for age, sex, DME duration and previous number of injections (p > 0.05). Both groups experienced statistically significant improvements of both BCVA and central macular thickness (p < 0.01) at the end of the follow-up. Persistent DME was shown by 46% of anti-VEGF/DEX eyes and 42% of FAc-treated eyes. Foveal eversion was found in 50% of anti-VEGF/DEX eyes and in 44% of FAc-treated eyes. Its presence was associated with worse anatomical and visual outcome and higher persistence of DME in both groups (p < 0.01) and with higher retreatment percentages in FAc-treated eyes (p < 0.01)., Conclusion: Foveal eversion is associated with worse clinical and morphological outcomes in DME.
