Delphi Consensus on the Use of Fenofibrate as Systemic Therapy for the Prevention of Diabetic Retinopathy Progression
This consensus highlights the need for multidisciplinary care, coordinated pathways, and patient education in diabetic retinopathy care. It also offers unified, evidence-informed recommendations for endocrinologists for the early initiation of fenofibrate to reduce diabetic retinopathy progression. While further studies are needed, these findings offer a practical framework for improving diabetic retinopathy management globally.
