Article Synopsis
  • Macular edema (ME) occurs due to leakage from retinal blood vessels, which can lead to serious vision loss, and current treatments like intravitreal injections (IVIs) are costly and burdensome.
  • The TalaDME study investigates whether a targeted laser treatment (ICG-guided targeted laser - IGTL) combined with standard IVI reduces the number of injections needed within the first year while maintaining visual acuity.
  • This French multicentric trial involves 270 patients with ME linked to diabetic retinopathy or retinal vein occlusion, randomly assigning them to either standard care or the combined treatment to evaluate the effectiveness of laser photocoagulation on reducing injection frequency and improving visual outcomes.
