Diabetic retinopathy and diabetes represent serious health conditions, being considered among the main causes of blindness. In recent years, anti-VEGF therapies have been of great help in the treatment of retinal pathology and, until now, they represent the primary choice therapy for diabetic retinopathy. Nevertheless, many patients do not experience significant benefits of vision after an anti-VEGF monotherapy. For this reason, several researchers recently focused their attention on the mechanisms that play a central role in the development and progression of diabetic retinopathy.

Abstract

Diabetic retinopathy and diabetes represent serious health conditions, being considered among the main causes of blindness. In recent years, anti-VEGF therapies have been of great help in the treatment of retinal pathology and, until now, they represent the primary choice therapy for diabetic retinopathy. Nevertheless, many patients do not experience significant benefits of vision after an anti-VEGF monotherapy. For this reason, several researchers recently focused their attention on the mechanisms that play a central role in the development and progression of diabetic retinopathy.
