Eleven patients had complete resolution of the retinopathy and had final visual acuities of 20/30 or better. Five eyes progressed to complete occlusion with final visual acuities of 20/300 or less. Seven eyes had chronic macular edema and visual acuities ranging from 20/40 to 20/200. One eye with background diabetic retinopathy developed optic disk neovascularization. None of the patients developed neovascular glaucoma.
