The authors present a method of treatment of diffuse diabetic macular oedema by means of photocoagulation of scatter grid type. Discussed are observations in the period of 6 months to 1 year after intervention. The technique of surgery, indications and all other factors which could have an influence on the final functional results are discussed in detail. Small risk of this surgical intervention and a good efficacy of this method is evaluated as a stabilization of the visual acuity, they allow to suggest that this method may play an important role in the treatment of diffuse diabetic macular oedema.
