Inclusion Criteria

1. Have a signed informed consent form before any study-specific procedures are performed.
2. Have DME with presence of intraretinal and/or subretinal fluid in the study eye, with central subfield thickness (CST) of ≥310 µm by SD-OCT at screening (Visit 1) (as assessed by an independent reading center).

Exclusion Criteria

1. Have macular edema considered to be because of a cause other than DME.
2. Have a decrease in BCVA because of causes other than DME.
3. Have a known history of significant macular ischemia which would prevent gain in visual acuity in the study eye.
