Abstract
Diabetic retinopathy is a disease based on vascular genesis that begins as microangiopathy and develops into macroangioapthy preceded by fibroproliferation changes. According to histo- pathological changes, diabetic retinopathy is divided into nonproliferative, pre-proliferative and proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Possibilities and needs for photo-coagulation in the earlier and later changes in retina reduce the meaning of conservative treatment. Laser photo-coagulation with therapeutical may cause unwanted and damaging effects, as well. Complications diagnosed in diabetic retinopathy, such as cataract, secondary glaucoma, central retinal vein thrombosis, haemophthalmus, are much more frequent in patients with laser photo-coagulation treatment.Entities:
