PANOROMA study: nonperfusion, leakage areas on DMO, complications in NPDR

Video

Dr W. Lloyd Clark discusses his presentation at ASRS 2021, "Impact of nonperfusion and leakage areas on diabetic macular oedema/vision-threatening complications in nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR)."

In his presentation at ASRS, Dr W. Lloyd Clark of the Palmetto Retina Centre in West Columbia, South Carolina, discussed the PANORAMA study’s findings on the effects of nonperfusion and leakage areas on diabetic macular oedema (DMO) and complications in nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy.

The PANORAMA study evaluated different dosing arms of intravitreal aflibercept versus sham treatment for severe nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy. Investigators found increases in leakage areas and retinal nonperfusion are associated with increased rates of centre-involved DMO and vision-threatening complications when compared to the sham-treated group.

Clark presented his talk, "Impact of nonperfusion and leakage areas on diabetic macular oedema/vision-threatening complications in nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR)" on Saturday, the 9th of October, 2021 at the ASRS 39th Annual Scientific Meeting in San Antonio, Texas.
