- W3036014726 abstract "Abstract Aim To evaluate the four-year outcome of intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy in an eye unit in sub-Saharan Africa. Methodology This retrospective study included 182 eyes of 172 patients managed in the vitreoretinal unit between 2016 and 2019 who were treated with intravitreal anti-VEGF Bevacizumab (1.25 mg/0.05 ml) with at least one year of follow up. The outcome measures were change in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) over one year of follow-up, the number of injections taken and complications. Results The mean age was 61.1 ± 16.3 years (M: F of 1:1.1) and about 62.1% were > 60 years. A total of 330 injections were given during the period audited. The mean number of injections was 1.8 ± 0.93. Ninety-four (51.7%) eyes had only one injection while 33 (18.1%), 50 (27.5%) and 5 (2.7%) had 2, 3 and 4 injections, respectively. About 78.5% had moderate-severe visual impairment at baseline and 44.5%, 16.4%,12.6% and 7.1% at 1, 3, 6- and 12-months post injections, respectively. The mean BCVA improved for all eyes from 1.67 ±0.91 logMAR at baseline to 1.50±1.27 logMAR at one year. The logMAR letters gained was 23 at 1 month and 8.25 at 1 year with a statistically significant association between increasing number of injections and improved visual outcome (p= 0.015). One patient each developed endophthalmitis (0.6%) and inferior retinal detachment (0.6%) post-injection. Conclusion Visual acuity gain was recorded in patients who had at least two intravitreal Anti-VEGF injections in 1 year." @default.
