Predictor of Early Remission of Diabetic Macular Edema under As-Needed Intravitreal Ranibizumab

Abstract The early remission of diabetic macular edema (DME) often occurs in eyes treated with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment. We retrospectively reviewed and characterized eyes with early remission of DME at six months in 80 eyes under pro re nata (PRN) intravitreal ranibi...
