Arms

  • Active Comparator: Prompt laser group
    Eyes of eligible patients will be randomized (ratio 1:1) and receive ranibizumab and focal/grid laser on the same day (prompt' group, 25 eyes, 50%). Interventions: ranibizumab and focal/grid laser on the same day \[Ranibizumab (Ranibizumab 0.5 MG/0.05 ML Intraocular Solution\]
  • Active Comparator: Deferred laser group
    Eyes of eligible patients will be randomized (ratio 1:1) and receive ranibizumab and focal/grid laser on one week prior to laser treatment (deferred' group, 25 eyes, 50%). Interventions: ranibizumab and focal/grid laser on one week prior to laser treatment \[Ranibizumab 0.5 MG/0.05 ML Intraocular Solution\]
