Abstract

Macular laser photocoagulation (MLP) a recognized Diabetic macular edema (DME) therapy. Nevertheless, sizeable portion of patients do not react favorably to laser therapy and do not show any improvement after photocoagulation. There are now a growing variety of alternatives to MLP that may be used to treat DME. Comparing the effectiveness of laser photocoagulation with two alternative treatments intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) and a sequential intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide combined with grid laser therapy is the study’s goal. The study sincerely attempts to demonstrate the efficacy of existing methods for curing DME by enhancing patient health and simplifying treatment processes. In this study, we have utilized evidence based comparative approach to justify the efficacy of alternative therapies over laser photocoagulation treatment procedure. Facts and resources of experimental cases the data of investigation outcomes of the patient tests are conducted and collected at two hospitals in India. Evidences and experimental results support the efficacy of the alternative treatment method in mitigating adverse effects of laser. Both alternatives, IVTA and triamcinolone acetonide with grid laser are observed effective in enhancing visual acuity, macular thickness and induce reabsorption of hard exudates. Combinational therapy of TA and grid laser is found as a better option than using a grid laser alone in treating diabetes led Macular Edema. The combined therapies have potential to improve visual acuity and decrease central macular thickening.
