Summary

The specific aims of the study are to test the following hypotheses:

* That there is a difference in change in visual acuity resulting from treatment with intravitreal bevacizumab compared with dexamethasone implant in eyes with advanced macular oedema
* That there is a difference in degree of resolution of macular oedema resulting from treatment with intravitreal bevacizumab compared with dexamethasone implant in eyes with advanced macular oedema
* That both intravitreal bevacizumab and dexamethasone implants have a manageable and acceptable safety profile in eyes with diabetic macular oedema
