A global survey of ophthalmology clinics captured insights from patients, health care providers, and clinic staff regarding the management of diabetic macular edema (DME). The study researchers identified adherence challenges among patients, such as transportation difficulties, emotional and financial strain, and gaps in knowledge about DME. They described potential solutions such as longer-acting anti-VEGF agents, improved patient-provider discussions, digital health tools, and financial assistance programs.
