FIELD: ophthalmology. n SUBSTANCE: photodynamic therapy is performed due to intravenous injection of photo-sensitizer followed by radiation. As photo sensitizer the Photosense is used in dosage of 0,05-0,3 mkg/gram per weight. Laser radiation of membrane is carried out trans-papillary three days after Photosense was introduced. Membranes are radiated multiple at wavelength of 675 micron and power density of 80-200 mW/cm 2 . Membranes are subject to radiation every 3-5 days without additional injection of Photosense. Two to ten procedures are taken in total. n EFFECT: reduced frequency of relapses of subretinal neovascular membranes; improved vision functions. n 3 cl, 2 dwg, 2 ex |
