Long-term ophthalmologic symptoms after treatment of intracranial aneurysms by ophthalmic artery-covering flow diverter.

ABSTRACT: BackgroundOphthalmic complications after ophthalmic-covering flow diversion (OCFD) for intracranial aneurysms have been rarely reported with a large variability. A large systematic investigation of visual symptoms after OCFD has yet to be performed. This study aimed to explore ophthalmological symptoms and associated predicting factors in patients treated with OCFD.MethodsConsecutive patients receiving flow diversion (FD) treatment with or without ophthalmic artery (OA) coverage (n = 257) (January 2015-January 2021) were contacted for a telephone interview with a standardized 5-item questionnaire. Answers from patients with OCFD (n = 127) and a control group (n = 60) of FD-treated aneurysms without OCFD were collected and compared.ResultsThe rate of new ipsilateral visual symptoms was 37%
