Chapter 5 discusses multimodal therapy, and how the multimodal approach provides a framework that facilitates systematic treatment selection in a broad-based, comprehensive, and yet highly focused manner. It covers how it respects science and data-driven findings, and it endeavors to use empirically supported methods when possible. Nevertheless, it recognizes that many issues still fall into the grey area in which artistry and subjective judgment are necessary and tries to fill the void by offering methods that have strong clinical support.

The global prevalence of diabetes is estimated to be 336 million people, with diabetic complications contributing to significant worldwide morbidity and mortality. Diabetic retinopathy results from cumulative microvascular damage to the retina and inflammation is recognized as a critical driver of this disease process. This paper outlines the pathophysiology leading to proliferative diabetic retinopathy and highlights many of the inflammatory, angiogenic, and cytokine mediators implicated in the development and progression of this disease. We focus a detailed discussion on the current targeted therapeutic interventions used to treat diabetic retinopathy.
