Fluid can leak into the center of the macula, the part of the eye where sharp, straight-ahead vision occurs. The fluid makes the macula swell, blurring vision. This condition is called macular edema. It can occur at any stage of diabetic retinopathy, although it is more likely to occur as the disease progresses. About half of the people with proliferative retinopathy also have macular edema.
Maculaser Oy, a Finland-based medtech company developing a first-of-its-kind temperature-controlled retinal laser therapy, announces a new undisclosed investment with the participation of M2care, a European healthtech venture studio, and ZEISS Ventures, the corporate venture capital arm of the ZEISS Group.
