Sumario:The scars produced by the impact of laser photocoagulation appear as grey retinal round marks surrounding the temporal vascular arcades. Multiple dot and blot hemorrhages and microaneurysms can be seen in the posterior pole. There are two types of white abnormalities: multiple lipid exudate deposition near the macula and a couple of cotton-wool spots temporal to the optic disk. An abnormal tissue emerges from the optic nerve head as well as new vessels, which cannot be properly seen because of hemovitreous
