摘要
Purpose: To report a case of radiation-induced macular ischemia where vision and macular perfusion improved after hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy. Methods: A 62-year-old male patient developed radiation-induced macular ischemia after he was treated with radiation for brain glioma. The patient presented with best spectacle-corrected visual acuity (BSCVA) acuity of 20/400 in his right eye. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed central macular thickness of 468 mu m. The patient received focal laser, intravitreal t-riamcinolone, and HBO therapy. Results: The patient's vision improved from 20/400 to 20/100 after focal laser and intravitreal triamcinolone. His central macular thickness improved from 468 mu m to 132 mu m. After receiving HBO therapy, his VA improved to 20/50 and fluorescein angiography showed improvement in macular perfusion. Conclusion: HBO therapy improves macular perfusion in patients with radiation-induced macular ischemia.
