    Objective: This paper deals with a retrospective evaluation of the effect of navigated photocoagulation of chronic DME with the NAVILAS device. Methods: The cohort comprised 18 eyes with clinically significant DME. The age range was 41-82 years (median 68) and the monitoring time in all eyes lasted for 12 months. The following examination techniques were employed: best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) tested on ETDRS charts, biomicroscopic examination of the fundus in artificial mydriasis, colour photography, fluorescent angiography (FAG), and optical coherence tomography (OCT, spectral domain Cirrus, C. Zeiss). The values of BCVA and OCT were statistically tested by means of a non-parametric pair test (Wilcoxon). The performed therapy included 1 focal laser treatment of the macula, 9 grid photocoagulations of the macula, and 8 direct photocoagul.. View More»
