Overview

In the upcoming decade a rapid increase in DM and thereby also diabetic retinopathy is envisaged. The improvement of diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities significantly enhances and accelerates the clinical and socio-economic effectiveness of therapeutic procedures. In the treatment of PDR still predominates laser coagulation. In the treatment of diabetic macular edema, laser therapy was replaced by intravitreal pharmacotherapy with anti-growth factors. Steroids administered intravitreally remain reserved for chronic macular edema. Surgical treatment – pars plana vitrectomy – is indicated for advanced proliferative diabetic retinopathy and chronic persistent diabetic macular edema not responding to intravitreal antiVEGF or steroid therapy.
