Diabetic retinopathy and the use of laser photocoagulation: is it cost-effective to treat early?
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
PRP administered at the severe NPDR stage is likely to be cost-effective compared with delaying photocoagulation until HR-PDR develops, and a trial of early versus deferred laser therapy is needed to provide better data based on modern treatments.
