Multicenter randomized trials have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) agents for the treatment of diabetic macular edema. The results are generally good in the short term, with approximately 75% of patients maintaining or improving vision after initiation of treatment. Despite this favorable outcome, the observation of persistent fluid is not infrequent during treatment, even in patients undergoing monthly treatment sessions. Persistent fluid was observed on optical coherence tomography (OCT) in 70.9% of patients receiving bevacizumab monthly and in 79% of those receiving bevacizumab as needed at the end of the first year in the Comparison of diabetic macular edema. Treatment Trials. It is possible that resolution of this fluid, especially when it is centrally located (i.e., foveal), might result in better visual outcomes.
