The Impact of the Foveal Bulge on Visual Acuity in Resolved Diabetic Macular Edema and Retinal Vein Occlusions
The presence of a foveal bulge significantly enhances VA in patients with resolved DME and RVO. Our findings indicate that the increase in VA is more pronounced in RVO patients compared to those with DME. Additionally, the presence of the foveal bulge, ELM, and sex can serve as predictors for VA outcomes in these patient populations.
