Can macular degeneration caused by diabetes be cured?

Macular degeneration caused by diabetes is generally not curable, and symptoms can be relieved by laser, medication, surgery and other treatments. Patients with complications of diabetic retinopathy will have symptoms such as macular edema, which can be treated with lasers such as grating photocoagulation, and at the same time, drugs such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) such as Compazine can be used to inhibit neovascularization and improve the macular degeneration, but it is generally not curable. If retinal proliferative lesions are present, vitrectomy is needed to remove the proliferation to improve vision. It is recommended that patients with diabetic macular degeneration go to regular hospitals in time to improve the relevant examinations and standardize the treatment under the guidance of the doctor, so as to avoid delaying the condition or causing adverse reactions.
