Diabetic macular edema (DME), defined as a retinal thickening involving or approaching the center of the macula, represents the most common cause of vision loss in patients affected by diabetes mellitus. In the last few years, many diagnostic tools have proven to be useful in the detection and the monitoring of the features characterizing DME.

Pathophysiology of Macular Edema
Ophthalmologica, 2010Macular edema is defined as an accumulation of fluid in the outer plexiform layer and the inner nuclear layer as well as a swelling of Müller cells of the retina. It consists of a localized expansion of the retinal extracellular space (sometimes associated with the intracellular space) in the macular area. Macular edema is a common cause of a sudden or

Retinal edema is defined as any increase of water in retinal tissue resulting in an increase in its volume. This increase may be initially intracellular or extracellular. In the first case, there is cytotoxic edema. In the second, vasogenic edema, directly associated with an alteration of the blood-retinal barrier (BRB).

Diabetic macular edema (DME) is one of the most common causes of visual loss in patients with diabetes mellitus. Many patients continue to lose vision despite laser photocoagulation and medical therapies. The two major categories of medications currently used to treat DME are corticosteroids and anti-VEGF agents.

General Pathophysiology of Macular Edema
European Journal of Ophthalmology, 2010Macular edema represents a common final pathway for many ocular diseases. Related ocular disorders include diabetic retinopathy, vascular occlusions, postsurgical situations, and uveitic diseases. The key pathophysiologic process is a breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier, normally preventing water movement in the retina, thus allowing fluid to ...

Postsurgical Cystoid Macular Edema
2010Cystoid macular edema (CME) is a primary cause of reduced vision following both cataract and successful vitreoretinal surgery. The incidence of clinical CME following modern cataract surgery is 0.1-2.35%. Preexisting conditions such as diabetes mellitus and uveitis as well as intraoperative complications can raise the risk of developing CME ...

Macular Edema of Choroidal Origin
Acta Ophthalmologica, 2010AbstractAge‐related macular degeneration (AMD) is the result of an advanced alteration of the choriocapillaris and/or the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), and/or the photoreceptor (PR) layers. The neural retina is only partially involved, and additional pathways are required for the development of edema within the retina.

AbstractDiabetic macular edema (ME) is a severe complication of diabetic retinopathy (DR). The increasing worldwide prevalence of DR is fueling sustained efforts in devising new ways to prevent as well as to diagnose diabetic ME at an early stage in order to allow effective management to preserve or restore patient’s visual acuity.
