| Core Tip |
Progression of diabetic retinopathy (DR) to the sight-threatening DR (STDR) is rare during pregnancy but can cause significant ocular morbidity and distress to the mother. Good prepregnancy and intrapartum control of systemic risk factors, especially blood sugar and blood pressure, and adequate prepregnancy treatment of STDR will reduce complications during pregnancy. When STDR develops, conventional therapy for nonpregnant individuals may not be applied. This includes avoidance of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agents conventionally for diabetic macular oedema and proliferative DR (PDR), especially during early trimesters. Panretinal photocoagulation is a safe option for PDR. Surgical treatments should be performed under local anaesthesia or preferentially deferred until postpartum. |
