| Abstract | ||
| Diabetic retinopathy is one of most important complications of diabetes mellitus that can be treated by Nd:YAG laser. Laser is used in ophthalmic practice for photocoagulation and photodisruption The purpose of this study is to evaluate changes in immunological value after treatment of diabetic retinopathy by laser. Blood samples from 12 patients suffering from diabetic retinopathy were taken before and after laser treatment to coagulate retina to prevent leakage and hemorraghe to avoid deterioration of vision. The study showed clear changes in the values of immunology. main changes were in complemet(C3,C4) values which increased as noticed in after tretment because all lightinduced biological effects depend on the parameters of irradiation, the results suggest that the laser irradiation may play two principle roles in immunological changes. One , is stimulation of cellular proliferation , and stimulation of cellular differentiation that is responsible for different types of immunoglobulin.The other suggestion is that laser is acting as a triggering factor which induces systematic effects through the circulation when laser interacts with living cells so it has systemic effects through circulating blood. | ||
