In this activity, experts in the management of diabetic macular edema (DME) discuss the primary care physician (PCP) and ophthalmologist’s partnership in the care for patients with DME and optimizing treatment with VEGF-targeting agents. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Explain how extending treatment intervals for DME can improve patient satisfaction and treatment persistence with intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy; Discuss the clinical benefits of longer-acting intravitreal anti-VEGF agents in the treatment of DME; Describe multidisciplinary care plans that improve the long-term treatment outcomes of patients with patients with DME; and Outline strategies for optimizing DME outcomes in the primary care setting. This activity is intended for US healthcare professionals only.
