ABSTRACT
Purpose: to identify whether topical ketorolac after photocoagulation reduces foveal thickness 25% more than placebo, in patients with diabetic macular edema.
Methods: type 2 diabetics with macular edema were assigned to treatment with ketorolac (group 1) or placebo (group 2) during three weeks after photocoagulation. Central foveal thickness was measured before photocoagulation and three weeks later by optical coherence tomography. Mean central macular retinal thickness was compared before and after photocoagulation by Wilcoxon’s t.
Results. 56 eyes of 36 patients were evaluated (mean age 58.7), central foveal thickness before photocoagulation did not differ statistically between groups. In group 1 (n=29) central foveal retinal thickness changed from 136-635 µm (mean 233.5) to 113-508 µm (mean 193.2, difference 17.25%, p= 0.005); in group 2 (n=27) mean central foveal thickness changed from 126-499 µm (mean 223) to 112-399 µm (mean 212, difference 4.9%)
Conclusions: Topical ketorolac after photocoagulation was effective to increase the effect of photocoagulation in reducing central foveal thickness over 25% more than in patients treated with placebo. It still has to be determined whether anti-inflammatory therapy associated to photocoagulation has a long term effect on the final visual function.
