Purpose: To evaluate the effect of 3 intravitreal monthly bevacizumab injections for diabetic macular edema (DME) on the macular perfusion using spectral domain optical coherence tomography angiography (SD-OCTA). Methods: Treatment naïve patients with DME were prospectively recruited from Cairo University retina clinic. Included patients underwent full ophthalmological examination and SD-OCTA at baseline and after 3 intravitreal monthly bevacizumab injections. Both 6X6 and 3X3-mm macular scan protocols were used. Pre and post-treatment OCTA images were automatically aligned using a commercially available retina alignment software (i2k Align Retina software) then the fractal dimension (FD), vascular density (VD), and skeleton VD change following the injections were obtained at the full retinal thickness (Full) and the superficial (SCP) and deep (DCP) capillary plexuses after processing the aligned images using a semi-automated program. FD was calculated using the FracLac plugin of ImageJ. The foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area was measured manually using ImageJ and compared before and after treatment
