Does diabetic retinal hemorrhage require surgery?

Patient's question:

Because of a certain illness, I have been unable to stop taking medication for a long time. Due to the medication, my endocrine system has been affected, and now I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. Do I need surgery for diabetic retinal bleeding?

Doctor's answer:

Diabetic retinal hemorrhage, caused by diabetes, is primarily treated with laser therapy, fibrinolytics, and antiplatelet coagulants in modern Western medicine. These methods have certain clinical diagnostic effects, can treat existing new blood vessels and suppress the condition, but they cannot prevent the formation of new blood vessels or further refine blood stasis. It is possible to combine laser therapy with Western medicine, and during the recovery process, make efforts to utilize more opportunities for traditional Chinese medicine to achieve both symptom relief and therapeutic effects beyond existing symptoms.
