[The argon laser and diabetic retinopathy]

The authors give their opinion about the treatment of the Diabetic Retinopathy by the argon laser. They made use successively of xenon, then argon laser photocoagulation and they prefer the latter. They present 15 cases of patients treated by photocoagulation and watched during an average period of 4 years. The results are plainly favourable to the photocoagulation.
