CHANGES IN MACULAR THICKNESS AFTER PANRETINAL PHOTOCOAGULATION IN PATIENTS WITH SEVERE DIABETIC RETINOPATHY AND NO MACULAR EDEMA

Abstract

Biweekly PRP (1,200-1,600 spots) had no effect on visual acuity in patients with severe DR without macular edema, which was determined by clinical and optical coherence tomography examination, although mild macular thickening frequently persists.
