Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if drug TNTL works to treat non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy in adults. It will also learn about the safety of drug TNTL. The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. Does drug TNTL can improve visual acuity and reduce the degree of retinopathy?
2. What medical problems do participants have when taking drug TNTL? Researchers will compare drug TNTL to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if drug TNTL works to treat non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy.

Participants will:

1. Take drug TNTL or a placebo every day for 6 months
2. Visit the clinic once every 4 weeks for checkups and tests
3. Keep a diary of their symptoms and Change from baseline
