Abstract

The treatment of diabetic retinopathy (DR) with modern conservative methods, the combination of which with standard therapy improves the long-term prognosis of the disease, is being actively developed and widely implemented. Today, tools that block vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which is considered to be the main cause of the mechanism of neovascularization, as well as vascular hyperfiltration into the retina, have become widely available in practice. A detailed study of the properties of VEGF answers the question of the appropriateness of its use in patients with diabetes, its effectiveness, and the potential complications that could pose a serious threat to vision and health in general
