Diabetic Retinopathy

A retrospective study found that in both patients with type 2 diabetes and non-diabetics, average central macular thickness was lower in Asians than Caucasians. Why is this significant for clinicians?

An analysis using a large commercial claims database found that almost 3% of patients developed severe diabetic eye disease within 5 years of being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Clinical and demographic risk factors were also identified.

A new analysis from the DRCR Network Protocol V showed that many patients with center-involved diabetic macular edema and good vision do not require treatment for visual acuity loss.
