No cure: Diabetes and dr are chronic diseases.There are 3 main options for treating diabetic retinopathy: 1) laser photocoagulation; 2) intraocular injection; and 3) vitrectomy surgery. The type of treatment chosen is based on the extent and type of diabetic retinopathy your doctor identifies. Your prognosis will vary depending on the severity of your condition.
