Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Age requirement Age >= 18 years. 2. Diabetes diagnosis Meet the diagnostic criteria for diabetes (type 1 or type 2). 3. DME diagnosis Confirmed by optical coherence tomography (OCT) that there is fluid leakage or thickening in the macular central area, and the central retinal thickness (CRT) is higher than the normal reference value. 4. Vision requirement The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of the study eye is in the range of 20/32 to 20/320 (corresponding to approximately 78 to 24 letters on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) visual acuity chart) in the early treatment of diabetic retinopathy studies. 5. Treatment requirement Patients with DME who need to receive anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) or other new therapies. 6. Single eye study Only one eye is selected as the study eye to participate in the trial (if both eyes meet the inclusion criteria, the investigator needs to choose the more suitable eye to participate in the study). 7. Stable condition No obvious vitreous hemorrhage, tractional retinal detachment or other serious complications that affect the assessment of the retina. 8. General health condition Good blood sugar control, with glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) = 10%. Normal liver and kidney function, blood pressure and coagulation function. 9. Previous treatment Can include patients who have received anti-VEGF treatment in the past, but need to discontinue the treatment for at least 3 months before enrollment, or patients who have not received anti-VEGF treatment. 10. Compliance The patient and their legal representative can understand and sign the informed consent form, and are willing to comply with the follow-up and treatment plan stipulated in the research protocol.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Any other ocular diseases or systemic diseases may affect the assessment of vision. 2. Patients who have received any anti-VEGF drugs or laser treatment within the past 3 months. 3. Patients who are allergic to fraxinib or any of its components. 4. Pregnant or lactating women.
