About this study

Official title: OCT Angiography Changes in Patients With Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 With and Without Diabetic Retinopathy Undergoing Phacoemulsification

Detecting the influence of cataract surgery on the development of diabetic retinopathy in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 with and without diabetic retinopathy using OCT angiography.

Read the detailed description

Patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 with and without without diabetic retinopathy (on biomicroscopy examination) who need cataract surgery, will undergo OCT angiography examination prior to their cataract surgery. Average vessel density (%) in superficial capillary plexus, deep capillary plexus and choriocapillaris, parafoveal vessel density (%) in the superficial and deep plexuses, FAZ area (mm2) in the superficial capillary plexus, FAZ circularity, retinal thickness, microaneurysms and capillary non-perfusion will be taken into analysis.

Patients will be examined on the first day after the cataract surgery with phacoemulsification and in the bag posterior chamber lens implantation.

All patients will undergo OCT angiography examination four weeks after their cataract surgery.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Detecting changes in the retinal vascular plexuses and choriocapillaris after cataract surgery in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with and without diabetic retinopathy using OCT angiography.

    Changes in the retinal vascular plexus, superficial and deep vessel density, foveal avascular zone area, circularity and any developing microaneurysms and areas of retinal ischemia will be measured to see the influence of cataract surgery on diabetic retinopathy.

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetic Retinopathy, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Jordan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Detecting changes in the retinal vascular plexuses and choriocapillaris after cataract surgery in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with and without diabetic retinopathy using OCT angiography. (time frame: 1 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
