I have got diabetic macula edema in my left eye, but because i have excellent vision, they dont want to treat it at the moment, and i have to go back in 3 months. is it possible to reduce the fluid myself?

DO NOT even pretend to think that you are capable of properly treating diabetic macular edema by yourself! Listen to your ophthalmologists and strictly follow their recommendations.
