There exists a distinct disease stage called "preproliferative" MacTel type 2 showing clinical features of non-proliferative disease, diffuse + focal perifoveal hyperfluoroscence on FA, absent SRNVM on OCT and bunching perifoveal capillaries in DCP on OCTA. Its identification is important for suspecting proliferative disease, planning management and follow-up visit accordingly.
