Abstract
Intraocular injections of ranibizumab significantly reduced foveal thickness and improved visual acuity in 10 patients with DME, which demonstrated that VEGF is an important therapeutic target for DME. A randomized, controlled, double-masked trial is needed to test whether intraocular injections of ranibizumab provide long-term benefit to patients with DME.
