Introduction:
Diabetic retinopathy-(DR) presents the most aggressive form of the retinopathy that has progressive movement and often it ends with optic-atrophic blindness end includes heavy complications unless carried out by laser pan-retinal-photocoagulation.
Purpose Of The Study:
The aim of this study was analyzing the diabetic retinopathy and impact of the PRP laser treatment, proposition of the precautious as well to managing the complications and PDR prevention.
Material:
In this study were presented the treatment results of diabetic retinopathy treated in the Eye's Clinic in Prishtina, during the period of time (2004-2009). There were examined and diagnosed 42 patients with DR of whom 24 males or (57.14%) and 18 females or (42.85%). In 18 patients or (27%) we have had improvement, in 35 cases or (53%) stabilization and 13 cases or (20%) worsening of state after laser treatment with PRP to DR. The most frequently complications were vitreous hemorrhage in 5 cases or (38.46%) and blindness in 3 cases or (23.07%).
Methods:
There have been used statistical methods of processing and analysis according to the WHO standards.
Conclusions:
We consider that through an advanced education and research programs for inovative projects that meet criterias of our strategic targets to protecting the retina and optic-nerv by understanding DR and PDR and developing a better laser treatment and accurately monitoring of DM, we can manage to prevent complications and heavy consequences of DR. In order to achieve this aim we have to work hard to standardized protocols.
