Popis: Purpose: to study the effect of the thickness and vascular density of the retina on its photosensitivity in diabetic macular edema. Material and methods. 9 patients (13 eyes) aged from 26 to 79 years (average age 62.1 ± 16 years) with a diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy (DR), diabetic macular edema (DME) were examined. In addition to the standard ophthalmological examination, a complex of specialized research methods was performed, including microperimetry, optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT with angiography (OCT-angio) of the posterior segment of the eye. At the same time, the influence of morphometric parameters on functional changes in the retina in the corresponding segments with a diameter of 6 mm was analyzed. Results. The study was a high inverse correlation relationship in the majority of cases between the parameters of the relevant sectors according microperimetry and OCT and OCT-angio in central zone of diameter 1, 3 and 6 mm and a direct correlation between central retinal thickness by OCT diagnosis and the so-called parameter K, denoting the number of points with sensitivity below 24 dB according microperimetry with a high degree of confidence (p
