What injection is used for macular edema

Macular edema refers to the inflammation of the macular area at the bottom of the retina of the eye, which is sensitive to light and eventually leads to fluid infiltration and edema. This can cause a serious decrease in the patient's vision and may even lead to retinal diseases. Therefore, you need to pay attention to the reaction of the disease and choose the appropriate method of examination. The specific injection depends on the progress of the disease.

The latest scientific research on the therapeutic drug triamcinolone acetonide and dietary supplement method has found that lutein has a good protective function on the macular area. Therefore, the state has approved lutein esters as new resource functional foods. Lutein esters are the best source of lutein. Lutein, as the main component of retinal macular pigment, can protect the retina from light damage, oxidative damage and inflammatory damage, improve the metabolic function of retinal pigment epithelial cells, repair the pigment epithelium, and prevent various retinal diseases and macular diseases. Lutein supplementation can increase the pigment density in the macular area, improve the retinal macular microcirculation, enhance the resistance of the macula, protect the photoreceptor cells and prevent their apoptosis. Currently, the lutein food that has received good feedback includes the Huyuan Lutein Ester Tablets.

In daily life, you can also consume more foods containing lutein, such as: Lutein ester sources: spinach, lettuce, green broccoli, cabbage, celery, okra, egg yolk, carrot, corn, pumpkin, papaya, melon, guava, orange, tangerine, peach, etc. Sources of lutein include corn, egg yolk, orange, papaya, yellow pepper, wolfberry, etc. The main signs are irregular and blurred foveal reflections and thickening of the foveal area with or without intraretinal cysts. No other signs were seen in terms of submacular choroidal vascular morphology. Severe cases may cause vitreous cells, optic nerve swelling and petechial hemorrhages. Macular lamellar holes may develop, causing permanent visual impairment.
