Retro-mode scanning laser ophthalmoscopy in evaluation of peripheral retinal lesions
Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology Aug 16, 2020
Maltsev DS, Kulikov AN, Burnasheva MA, et al. - In the present study, the researchers sought to explore the diagnostic potential of retro-mode scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (RM-SLO) for peripheral retinal lesions assessment. Based on the findings of indirect ophthalmoscopy, they included asymptomatic patients with lattice retinal degeneration, retinal break, or subclinical retinal detachment and individuals without any peripheral retinal lesions. Twenty-six participants (52 eyes, 15 males and 11 females, 34.8 ± 11.8 years) were involved in the peripheral retinal lesion group and 25 people (50 eyes, 10 males and 15 females, 42.8 ± 14.5 years) were included in the group without peripheral retinal lesions. According to findings, RM-SLO displayed high potential in diagnosing peripheral retinal lesions and can be a valuable additional diagnostic tool for patients who have peripheral retinal lesions with indirect ophthalmoscopy.
