Figure 6

Morphological results of all eyes including the first visit after laser within the first 2 months. 8 eyes show CST-values below 300 µm throughout the follow-up period. Note that 4 eyes have CST values above 300 µm at the end of the follow-up (encircled in red). 2 of these 4 eyes (N°9 and N°10) had re-treatment with laser at their last visit during the follow-up period. One of the other 2 eyes showed progression of an epiretinal membrane, that was already present at baseline and presented with diffuse retinal swelling and no intraretinal cysts (N°3). The other eye showed stable visual acuity and an increase in CST of 30 µm from month 6 to 28 months after a good initial morphological response to laser therapy and was therefore not re-treated neither with focal laser nor with intravitreal anti-VEGF.
