Clinical and functional results of YAG-laser vitreolysis in different types of vitreous floaters treatment A.V. Doga, D.A. Buryakov, B.A. Normaev The S . Fyodorov Eye Microsurger y Federal State Inst i tut ion , Moscow Purpose. To evaluate clinical and functional results of YAG-laser vitreolysis in different types of vitreous floaters treatment. Material and methods. The study included 98 patients (98 eyes). Two groups were formed: the main group – patients with YAG-laser vitreolysis (67 eyes) and the control group – monitoring patients with the natural process course (31 eyes). Patients of the main group were divided into 3 subgroups: I. Weiss Ring (or its fragments) – 24 eyes, II. Cloud opacities – 22 eyes, III. Solid conglomerates – 21 eyes. All subjects underwent standard ophthalmological examinations completed with measurement of contrast sensitivity (CS), subjective perceptions (SP) and quantitative ultrasound assessment – mean gray value (MGV) – using the computer program ImageJ. Laser treatment was performed using the «Ultra Q Reflex» with pulse energy 1-9 mJ. Followup: at the baseline, 1 week, 1, 3, 6, 12 months after treatment. Results. There was a statistically significant CS and SP improvement at 1 week, 1, 3, 6, 12-month follow-up in the main group (p<0.05), compared with the control group which showed no significant change (p>0.05). A comparative analysis of clinical and functional outcomes in subgroup I revealed a significant increase of CS (p<0.05) and a positive trend in subgroups II and III (p>0.05). Mean SP, MGV in the subgroups I and II significantly improved (p<0.05) compared to the subgroup III (p>0,05) at the 1-week follow-up after surgery and remained stable at the 12-month follow-up. Conclusions. YAG laser vitreolysis is an effective treatment technique of vitreous floaters. The initial type of vitreous floaters determines the tactics and outcomes of laser treatment. Key word: YAG laser vitreolysis, vitreous floaters, contrast sensitivity, questionnaire, mean gray value.  No author has a financial or proprietary interest in any material or method mentioned.
