Results from a large clinical trial conducted by the Diabetic Retinopathy Clinical Research Network, or DRCR.net, demonstrated that patients receiving anti-VEGF treatments along with prompt laser treatments, had greater gains in visual acuity after one year than patients who received only the traditional laser treatment.

Patients with diabetic macular edema near the center of the macula gained the most vision from the treatments.

At The Macula Center, Dr. Deupree has been treating some cases of diabetic macular edema with the various available anti-VEGF drugs with great success.
