About DR and its Treatment Types
DR is defined as an eye disorder that damages the blood vessels of the retina. The retina is the light-sensitive inner surface of the eye which acts as a film for the formation of an image. Long-term diabetes affects the retina as a high blood glucose level can deteriorate and damage the tiny blood vessels in the retina. DR is broadly classified into either non-proliferative DR or proliferative retinopathy. Treatment for DR is dependent on the stage of the disease and is directed at trying to slow or stop the progression of the disease. At present, three types of treatment exist for DR: laser surgery, injection of corticosteroids or anti-VEGF drugs into the eye, and vitrectomy.
