Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is rising globally. While treatments exist, inconsistent screening and care gaps necessitate further research for better management of this diabetes complication.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Endocrinology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Rising global prevalence of diabetic retinopathy linked to increased diabetes incidence and patient longevity.
  • Existing treatments for diabetic retinopathy are effective across various stages.
  • Significant challenges persist, including disparities in care delivery and screening inconsistencies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current therapeutic knowledge for diabetic retinopathy.
  • To identify gaps in evidence and areas requiring further research.
  • To inform future clinical practice and research directions.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of current therapeutic strategies for diabetic retinopathy.
  • Analysis of existing evidence on treatment efficacy and outcomes.

  • Identification of unresolved management questions and research needs.
  • Main Results:

    • A range of effective treatments are available for diabetic retinopathy.
    • Current care delivery and screening practices are inconsistent.
    • Several key questions regarding the management of diabetic retinopathy remain unanswered.

    Conclusions:

    • Despite available treatments, suboptimal care delivery and screening hinder effective diabetic retinopathy management.
    • Further research is crucial to address evidence gaps and improve patient outcomes.
    • Enhanced strategies are needed to optimize the treatment and long-term care of diabetic retinopathy.
