New laser treatment for diabetic macular oedema (DMO)

Описание к видео New laser treatment for diabetic macular oedema (DMO)

For our second My Macular and Me webinar of May, we were joined by professor of ophthalmology, Noemi Lois, from Queen's University Belfast. She looked at the results of a recent trial for patients with diabetic macular oedema (DMO).

The trial set out to test two types of laser for treating patients with DMO, one standard laser, which has been available for many years, and another much newer laser. It was found that the newer laser could clear up mild DMO without producing a burn on the retina, unlike the standard laser.

The news of the trial is positive for those living with diabetes as it has found that this newer macular laser is a good treatment option.
