A diagram showing treatment intervention and prognosis in eyes with large area of capillary non-perfusion (LACNP). *Conservative medical treatment was applied in eyes with no evidence of neovascular complications (n=23) or with end-stage of diabetic retinopathy indicating very poor surgical prognosis (n=5). **Surgical intervention (n=15) included pars plana vitrectomy for vitreous hemorrhage and/or tractional detachment (n=11) and anti-glaucoma surgery (n=4). ***Improved or stable was defined as an increase of BCVA or a decrease of less than one ETDRS line (5 letters) without significant neovascular complications. ****Worsening was considered with a decrease of 1 EDTRS line or more.
