Ultra-Widefield Fluorescein Angiography-Based Targeted Retinal Photocoagulation Versus Conventional Panretinal Photocoagulation in the Preservation of Visual Function and Regression of Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy

Proliferative diabetic retinopathy is a vision-threatening disease that can lead to irreversible visual loss. The treatment options for proliferative diabetic retinopathy are anti-VEGF injection and retinal photocoagulation. The study aims to compare ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography-based targeted retinal photocoagulation and panretinal photocoagulation in the treatment of proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
