Automatic Segmentation of Exudates in Ocular Images using Ensembles of Aperture Filters and Logistic Regression [PDF]
, 2013 Hard and soft exudates are the main signs of diabetic macular edema (DME). The segmentation of both kinds of exudates generates valuable information not only for the diagnosis of DME, but also for treatment, which helps to avoid vision loss and blindness.

Corticosteroids for diabetic macular edema
Taiwan Journal of Ophthalmology, 2019 Diabetic macular edema (DME) is a chronic condition with a multifactorial pathogenesis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and several inflammatory mediators are upregulated in eyes with DME. VEGF inhibitors and corticosteroids have all been used successfully in the management of DME.
