Abstract

To evaluate features of macular edema assessed by optical coherence tomography (OCT)and other imaging tools such as infrared, blue retinography and autofluorescence, and fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) in different pathologic conditions. The principal causes of macular edema were reviewed to evaluate its aspect in each pathology. Correlations between OCT and other imaging techniques were analyzed. Optical coherence tomography and other imaging tools allowed the authors to confirm the existence of different macular edema patterns for different pathologies and to describe their characteristics; in particular, some conditions, like idiopathic macular telangiectasias and age-related maculopathy, were found to present specific edema patterns. Simultaneous use of different imaging techniques allowed a better evaluation and follow-up of conditions causing cystoid macular edema.
