This study was conducted to determine whether indirect grid laser therapy is effective in reducing focal diabetic macular edema characterised by focal leaks and hard exsudates involving the para-foveal area (less than 300 microns from the center of the fovea). Since focal coagulation of microaneurysms in such a critical location can be deleterious, indirect grid pattern laser treatment may be used in such cases.
