The elderly diabetic with PDR may present with problems in differential diagnosis. The less marked tendency toward symmetry among the elderly may argue against prophylactic panretinal photocoagulation in a fellow eye, especially if the eye with PDR does not have high-risk characteristics. Anticoagulation can complicate management. Aspirin and other medications that interfere with clotting should be discontinued if possible.
患有增殖性糖尿病视网膜病变（PDR）的老年糖尿病患者在鉴别诊断方面可能存在问题。老年人中对称性不太明显的趋势可能不支持对侧眼进行预防性全视网膜光凝，尤其是当患有PDR的眼睛不具有高危特征时。抗凝会使治疗复杂化。如果可能的话，应停用阿司匹林和其他干扰凝血的药物。
