THE WAY TO
TREAT
In post hoc analyses intravitreal anti-VEGF agents have also been shown to impact
severity of diabetic retinopathy (DR), showing disease-modifying capabilities not
achievable with PRP
On this basis, PRP may be more suitable for those patients considered less likely to return
for followup visits for various reasons, in whom strict adherence to follow-up visits may be
questionable, or with a specific contraindication to the use of intravitreal anti-VEGF agents

Photocoagulation Treatment
A sham-treated patient without prior PRP treatment who underwent on-study PRP
experienced a 1-step DR severity improvement, from moderate PDR (DRSS level 65)
to mild PDR (DRSS level 60) on the ETDRS DRSS.
