Inclusion Criteria

18 years old and older without gender restriction; Type 1 or 2 diabetes; Diabetic macular edema with central involvement; Central retinal thickness equal to or greater than 325 µm measured by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT); Best-corrected visual acuity less than 74 letters measured by the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) table.

Exclusion Criteria
