Purpose: To evaluate patients’ self-recognition of reduced visual acuity due to recurring macular edema in retinalvein occlusion.
Methods: A retrospective review of medical records of patients who were diagnosed with recurring macularedema secondary to retinal vein occlusion was performed. The proportion of patients who recognized reducedvisual acuity due to the recurrence of macular edema and who visited the hospital before the scheduledfollow-up date was determined. Parameters including age, sex, diagnosis, visual acuity before recurrenceof macular edema, and extent of visual acuity reduction due to recurrence of macular edema were comparedin patients who recognized a reduction in visual acuity and those who did not. The proportion of patients whovisited the hospital promptly was also determined.
Results: Forty eyes of 40 patients were included in the analysis. Sixteen and 24 patients were diagnosed withcentral retinal vein occlusion and branch retinal vein occlusion, respectively. Twenty-one patients (52.5%) recognizedreduced visual acuity due to recurring macular edema. These patients were younger (59.2 ± 7.6 vs.
64.8 ± 9.4 years, p = 0.046), had better visual acuity before recurrence of macular edema (0.52 ± 0.48 vs. 1.02± 0.46, p = 0.002), and exhibited a greater reduction in visual acuity after recurrence of macular edema (0.34± 0.24 vs. 0.14 ± 0.13, p = 0.003). Only four patients visited the hospital before the scheduled follow-up date,and all of these patients lived relatively close to the hospital.
Conclusions: For prompt treatment of recurring macular edema, more intensive education about the self-estimationof visual acuity is necessary, particularly for elderly patients who have relatively poor visual acuity. Inaddition, a simple and easy way to identify the recurrence of macular edema at the local clinic should be establishedfor patients who live relatively far from the hospital.
