SD-OCT in evaluation of microstructural changes in macula following blunt ocular trauma
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction Visual morbidity due to blunt ocular trauma BOT is common but there is paucity of reports on posterior segment manifestations following BOT using Spectral domain optical coherence tomography SDOCT In this study an attempt is made to assess the microstructural changes in macula following BOT using SDOCTObjectives To evaluate microstructural changes in macula following blunt ocular traumaMaterials and Methods A prospective study conducted on 30 patients with BOT of any age and gender attending Ophthalmology outpatient department and casualty at Hospitals attached to JJM Medical College Davangere Detailed history of trauma and thorough examination was done Patients were evaluated for macular changes using SDOCT at presentation and follow up at 1 and 6 months from traumaResults In this study 19 633 patients had changes involving the fovea and 11366 had foveal sparing changes 14466 eyes had commotion like changes 4 133 eyes developed macular hole 266 eye had choroidal rupture passing through the fovea 133 eye had retinal detachment 11366 patients had extrafoveal involvement in the form of choroidal ruptures in 5166 eyes and significant RPE alterations sparing fovea in 620 eyesConclusion OCT plays a vital role in detecting macular microstructural changes Thus OCT can be useful in evaluation and management of BOTKeywords Blunt ocular trauma Macular changes SDOCT
