Analysis of the central zone of the retina in patients with diabetic macular edema
Aim. To assess morphological changes of retinal layers and optical density of macular pigment in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) for the diagnostic criterion of pathological process.Materials and methods. 31 patients were divided in two groups. The first group (A) included 19 patients wit...
