Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a medical condition that affects the eyes of people with diabetes. It is caused by damage to the blood vessels in the retina, the light-sensitive layer of tissue at the back of the eye. DR can lead to vision loss and blindness if left untreated. Optical imaging technologies, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) and fundus photography, are used to diagnose and monitor DR. These technologies allow for early detection and treatment of DR, which can help to reduce the risk of vision loss. In addition to imaging technologies, there are a number of treatments available for DR, including laser photocoagulation, intravitreal injections, and vitrectomy. These treatments can help to reduce the risk of vision loss and improve vision in those with DR. The DR market is a rapidly growing market, driven by the increasing prevalence of diabetes and the need for early detection and treatment of DR. Companies in the DR market include Carl Zeiss Meditec, Topcon Corporation, Optos, Nidek, and Heidelberg Engineering. Show Less Read more
