Abstract

Effects of Conbercept combined with retinal photocoagulation on macular edema secondary to branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) were investigated. A total of 98 patients (98 eyes) with macular edema secondary to BRVO were collected. The central macular thickness (CMT), incidence rate of complications after treatment and best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) were recorded. Also the factors affecting visual recovery of patients were analyzed. At 1 week, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after treatment, the BCVA in both groups was significantly superior to that before treatment (P<0.05). In the combination group and laser group, the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) of BCVA increased from 0.84±0.47 to 0.34±0.10 and from 0.89±0.49 to 0.45±0.14, and CMT declined from 559.5±152.7 to 267.8±19.8 µm and from 570.3±172.6 to 314.7±18.4 µm. It was observed that at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after treatment, the BCVA in combination group was obviously better than that in laser group (P=0.008, P<0.001, P=0.004, P<0.001, respectively), while CMT in combination group was obviously smaller than that in laser group (P=0.009, P=0.002, P<0.001, P<0.001). Conbercept with retinal photocoagulation can effectively improve the visual acuity and reduce the CMT. The visual recovery of patients after treatment is related to the BCVA before treatment, decreased value of CMT at 1 month after treatment and integrity of external limiting membrane (ELM).
