Enrollment was restricted to patients undergoing standard HD sessions for a minimum of three months. Hand-held slit lamp examination, IOP, blood pressure (BP), and central corneal thickness (CCT) measures were taken at the following three time points: the beginning of the session <i>(before</i>), at the half-way point <i>(middle)</i>, and at the conclusion of the session <i>(end)</i>.

Current treatment modalities, including anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) agents and corticosteroids, often require repeated applications, increasing both medical and economic burdens. ME is driven by chronic inflammation and VEGF overexpression, causing fluid accumulation in the macula. Recent studies have highlighted the role of various cytokines in ME pathogenesis, necessitating a comprehensive approach to treatment. While monotherapies have shown efficacy, they are associated with limitations such as the need for frequent injections and potential side effects. Combination therapies, including anti-VEGF drugs with macular laser photocoagulation, triamcinolone acetonide, or dexamethasone intravitreal implant (Ozurdex), have emerged as promising strategies. This review analyzes the outcomes of various combination approaches in different types of ME, including diabetic macular edema (DME), retinal vein occlusion-associated ME (RVO-ME), and uveitic macular edema (UME). The potential benefits of combining anti-VEGF and anti-inflammatory treatments are discussed, along with the need for personalized treatment regimens. Future research directions are outlined, emphasizing the importance of large-scale, long-term studies to evaluate the sustained efficacy and safety of combination therapies.

Clinical and social vulnerability characteristics were analyzed for differences in functional and structural glaucoma deficits. Those who did not return after 1 year were considered lost to follow-up. Outcome measures included a comparison of blindness, glaucoma severity [visual field and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) loss], and follow-up rates between groups.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>At presentation, 95 Haitians had worse average mean deviation (MD) than controls in the better (-9.4 ± 9.8 vs -5.1 ± 6.4 dB, p < 0.02) and worse eyes (-12.7 ± 10.0 vs -7.3 ± 7.0 dB, p < 0.01). Haitians also had a greater percentage of functional blindness (22.4% vs 4.1%, p < 0.02) in the worse eye. RNFL thickness and loss to follow-up were similar between groups. Haitians were also less likely to have had a glaucoma surgery or laser prior to presentation than controls (p ≤ 0.009). In multivariable models, Haitian descent was associated with worse MD in the worse eye. Worse neighborhood area deprivation indices were associated with higher likelihood of loss to follow-up, but Haitian descent was not.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Haitians had greater vision loss than controls despite similar exam findings. Higher burden of blindness and fewer prior procedures upon presentation may indicate a care disparity. Haitian patients may benefit from greater surveillance or earlier treatment for glaucoma.</p>","PeriodicalId":93945,"journal":{"name":"Clinical ophthalmology (Auckland, N.Z.)","volume":"19 ","pages":"773-783"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11895674/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143607540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
