EE74 The Burden of Disease of Diabetic Macular Edema and Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration in Panama

Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) and neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration (nAMD) cause vision loss leading to morbidity and loss of health-related quality of life. Treatment in the country is based on laser (public market) and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (private market). Our objective is to estimate the economic burden generated by these diseases in Panama to have information that allows decision-makers to estimate the magnitude of this problem in the country.
