Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to validate a predictive model of diabetic retinopathy progression in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 patients to clinically significant macular edema (CSME) needing treatment either photocoagulation or intravitreal injections (ITV) using non-invasive techniques.

    3. Central retinal thickness [Months 0, 6, 12 and 24.]

    4. Microaneurysm(MA) activity (number of MA, MA formation and MA disappearance rates and MA turnover) [Months 0, 6, 12 and 24.]
