Ramin Tadayoni, MD, PhD, describes DME as the leading cause of preventable blindness in working-age people, explaining how the current treatment landscape leaves many patients untreated due to the challenges of invasive intravitreal injections. He stresses the importance of developing new, pre-invasive treatments so physicians can treat DME at an earlier stage and have additional treatment options for suboptimal responders to the current standard of care.
