Diabetic RetinopathyDiabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is a leading Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of new cases of blindness in cause of new cases of blindness in people aged 20 to 74 years in the people aged 20 to 74 years in the USAUSA
Many of the complications of diabetic Many of the complications of diabetic retinopathy can be prevented or retinopathy can be prevented or delayed by blood glucose control and delayed by blood glucose control and timely intervention.timely intervention.

PreventionPrevention
Prospective controlled interventional Prospective controlled interventional studies have shown that strict studies have shown that strict control of blood glucose and blood control of blood glucose and blood pressure significantly reduces and pressure significantly reduces and delays the onset and severity of delays the onset and severity of diabetic retinopathy.diabetic retinopathy.
