Investigators reviewed electronic medical records for documentation of retinopathy stage, disease genotype, CBC values, and SD-OCT imaging. SD-OCT parameters and CBC values were compared between different retinopathy stages and disease genotypes. Regression analyses were performed on SD-OCT parameters and CBC values.Results: Of the 58 eligible eyes (34HbSS, 18HbSC, 4HbSβ +thal, 2HbS βthal), 18 had PSR (proliferative sickle retinopathy), 14 had NPSR (nonproliferative sickle retinopathy), and 26 had NSR (no sickle retinopathy). Hb values were higher in SC group compared to SS group. Macular thickness in the temporal inner (Δ=26±33 um, p=0.01) and outer (Δ=21±30 um, p=0.02) subfields was higher in SC compared to SS group. Patients with SD-OCT thinning below the 5th percentile in the temporal outer subfields had lower recorded Hb nadirs (6.0±0.9) compared to those with thickness within the top 95th percentile (9.1±2.3). Regression analysis showed temporal macular thickness to be positively correlated with Hb values in the SS group.Conclusion: Macular thinning observed on SD-OCT in SCD patients with SS genotype may be related to the level of anemia in this population.Keywords: sickle cell retinopathy, macular thinning, spectraldomain optical coherence tomography, hemoglobinHussnain SACoady PASlade MDCarbonella JPashankar FAdelman RAStoessel KMDove Medical PressarticleSickle cell retinopathymacular thinningspectral-domain optical coherence tomographyhemoglobinOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 13, Pp 627-632 (2019) |
