Association Between Baseline Glycated Hemoglobin Levels and Functional and Anatomical Outcomes Following Faricimab Loading Phase in Diabetic Macular Edema
Systemic glycemic status may influence functional outcomes, supporting the importance of maintaining optimal HbA1c levels in the overall management of diabetic patients. However, baseline HbA1c did not emerge as an independent predictor in this cohort. Notably, Faricimab provided clear anatomical and functional benefits regardless of glycemic control, confirming its efficacy as a treatment for DME.
