Abstract

The catastrophic effects of proliferative diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular edema on the vision of patients with diabetes emphasize the importance of control of the diabetic process (1). The end stage of this process—namely, unresponsive macular edema, vitreous hemorrhage, and traction-related retinal detachment—can effectively be prevented and useful vision can be retained with timely laser photocoagulation. A logical goal is early detection of these complications because the efficacy of photocoagulation therapy depends on early treatment (2).
