RESUMEN
Objetivo Evaluar el impacto en la calidad de vida (CdV) entre diferentes enfermedades de la retina como el edema macular diabético (EMD), la oclusión venosa retiniana (OVR), la miopía patológica (MP), la degeneración macular asociada a la edad neovascular (DMAEn) y la coriorretinopatía serosa central (CSC). Métodos Se realizó un estudio transversal en 241 pacientes afectados de EMD (n=44), OVR (n=41), MP (n=34) y DMAEn (n=85) que recibieron inyecciones intravítreas por presencia de edema macular o neovascularización. Los pacientes con CSC incluidos (n=37) eran candidatos a tratamiento con láser. Los pacientes completaron el National Eye Visual Functioning Questioning-25 (NEIVFQ-25). Se registró la mejor agudeza visual corregida (MAVC). Resultados Existieron diferencias significativas entre subgrupos para todos los dominios, excepto para la visión general, en la que todas las puntuaciones entre enfermedades oscilaron entre 40,7 y 45,2 sobre 100 (p=0,436), a pesar de la diferencia en MAVC (CSC: 86,3±11,9; OVR: 78,5±15,5; EMD: 73,3±15,2; DMAEn: 72,9±12,6 y MP: 68,5±18,1 letras, respectivamente (p<0,001). La puntuación total más baja se observó en la MP (52,1±20,9), seguida de DMAEn (55,3±20,8), OVR (65,0±22,3), EMD (68,6±21,0) y CSC (70,9±16,2). El grupo con EMD tuvo la peor puntuación para la salud general (38,9±21,4). La salud mental y las dificultades de rol fueron más bajas en la MP (48,2±28,8 y 48,2±31,9, p<0,007). Conclusiones Este estudio revela las diferencias en la CdV entre EMD, OVR, DMAEn, MP y CSC, describiendo las diferentes repercusiones que pueden sufrir, observándose un mayor impacto en la MP y la DMAEn (AU)
Purpose To assess the impact on the quality of life (QoL) among different retinal diseases such as diabetic macular edema (DME), retinal vein occlusion (RVO), pathologic myopia (PM), neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) and central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC). Methods A cross-sectional study was carried out in 241 patients, affected by DME (n=44), RVO (n=41), PM (n=34) and nAMD (n=85) receiving intravitreal injections due to the presence of macular edema or choroidal neovascularization. The CSC patients included (n=37) were candidates for laser treatment. The patients included completed the National Eye Visual Functioning Questioning-25 (NEIVFQ-25). Best eye visual acuity (BEVA) was recorded using the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) scale. Results There were significant differences between subgroups for all the domains, except for the general vision in which all scores among diseases ranged from 40.7 to 45.2 out of 100 (P=.436), despite the difference in BEVA (CSC: 86.3±11.9; RVO: 78.5±15.5, DME: 73.3±15.2, nAMD: 72.9±12.6 and PM: 68.5±18.1 letters, respectively; P<.001). The lowest VFQ-25 total score was observed in the PM patients (52.1±20.9), followed by nAMD (55.3±20.8), RVO (65.0±22.3), DME (68.6±21.0) and CSC (70.9±16.2). The DME group reported the worst score for general health (38.9±21.4). Mental health and role difficulties were lowest for PM (48.2±28.8 and 48.2±31.9, P<.007). Conclusions This study reveals the differences in the QoL among DME, RVO, nAMD, PM and CSC, describing the different repercussions that they can suffer, observing a higher impact in PM and nAMD (AU)
