Abstract
Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) poses as a significant threat to patient's vision if untreated or treated insufficiently. Panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) has long been a mainstay treatment for this condition. The advent of anti-VEGF therapy provided an additional option for the management of this condition. The aim of the presentation is to present the effects of anti VEGF treatment in PDR with special emphasis on the combination: PRP with anti-VEGF therapy. Results of treatment with these modalities, especially regression of neovascularization, together with the incidence of potential complications will be discussed. Additional aspects of such therapy, such as BCVA improvement and central retinal thickness reduction will also be presented. Potential indications for such treatment will be outlined as well as possible treatment schedules for such management.
