Abstract:
The aim: 1. Analysis of the efficacy and of the modalities of laser treatment of diabetic
retinopathy (DR); 2. Comparative evaluation of the efficacy of different treatment types: laser,
chirurgical, drug, combined of DR for diabetes mielitus patients who are with associated pathologies,
insulinodependent or insulinoindependent. Materials and methods: 100 selected patients that formed 2
lots (37 men, 63 women) of whom 61 are capable and 39 incapable to work. The material was
analyzed by the criteria number of patients, and by the criteria “eyes patient” (affected or not
affected). The analysis method: statistical process of the quantitative values was preceded by the
calculation of the arithmetic media (M), of the arithmetical medium error (m). The likening of the
variables in different independent groups was performed by Student criteria (t), range correlation
criteria (Spearmen). The witness case research results, permitted to us to evaluate the visual acuteness
state of eyes patient after 4 treatment type were effectuated. The treatment was performed like
monothetapy or like a combined treatment. Laser, chirurgical and drug treatments were from the first
group. After laser treatment were obtained a 26.5% cases visual acuteness amelioration] n men lot
and 33.1% cases in women lot. Were obtained a visual acuteness stabilization in 57.1% cases in men
lot, in 52.1% cases in women lot, in 51.3% cases in capable to work lot and 59.6% cases in incapable
to work lot. Were obtained a visual acuteness worsening post-treatment in 16.2% cases in men lot, in 15.0% cases in women lot, in 16.6% cases in capable to work lot and in 11.9% cases in incapable to
work group. Conclusions: the laser is the most efficient monotherapy treatment method in DR, having
a minimum of complications and side effects (100% efficacy in men lot, 94.2% efficacy in women
lot, 95.3% efficacy in capable to work lot, 100% efficacy in incapable to work group).
