Diabetic Retinopathy, Proliferative (PDR)

Diabetic Retinopathy, Proliferative (PDR)
Preretinal hemorrhages occur after traction on new vessels. They can be suspected to be located at the proliferation of the 6 o'clock vein and at 7 o'clock. The hemorrhagic streaks toward the macula indicate a subhyaloid connection to this area.
