Management of Diabetic Macula Oedema in 2020 and beyondVenue: Royal College of Ophthalmologists, LondonDate: 3 AprilDiabetic macula oedema (DMO) is the most common cause of visual loss in patients with diabetes. As well as addressing systemic factors such as hyperglycaemia and hypertension, there are specific ophthalmic treatments that are established in the armamentarium of clinicians managing DMO such as focal laser and more recently intravitreal anti-VEGF agents and steroids.
