2. Diabetes and the Eye
ďDiabetic Retinopathy
ďDiabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of new blindness in persons aged
25-74
ďDiabetic Macula Oedema
ďGlaucoma
ďIris Neovascularisation
ďNeuropathies
ďCorneal Anomalies
ďHyperopic /Myopic Prescription Changes
ďExtra-ocular Muscle Palsy
ďDry Eye Disease (50%) (reduced corneal sensitivity)
4. DIABETIC RETINOPATHY
1. Epidemiology and risk factors
2. Classification and features of Diabetic
retinopathy (DR)
3. Complications of DR and their prevention
4. Screening protocol for DR and referral to Ophthalmologist
5. Direct ophthalmoscopy and identification of fundus
findings
5. Epidemiology of DR
RISK of developing DR:
⢠Type 1 DM â 70%
⢠Type 2 - 39%
⢠Type 2 on insulin â 70%
6. Prevalence of the type of Diabetes
ďˇ Type 2 â in 90% of diabetic patients
Diabetic retinopathy - most common
cause of legal blindness between
ages 20 and 70 years.
7. All people with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes
are at risk of developing diabetic
retinopathy.
⢠Over the same duration, type 1 may
result in worse diabetic retinopathy
⢠The longer a person has diabetes,
the greater the risk. (25% for 15
years)
⢠Poor control of blood sugar levels
can increase the risk
Access Economics Pty Ltd. Clear Insight â The Economic Impact and Cost of Vision Loss in Australia, 1.2 Diabetic Retinopathy, August 2004,
Who is at risk?
8. ⢠Systemic Hypertension
⢠Hyperlipidaemia
⢠Renal disease
⢠Pregnancy (with prior Type 1 or Type 2
diabetes)
⢠Family History of DR
⢠Smoking
Other Risk Factors
9. ďIntensive glucose therapy
ďReduces the onset of new DR by 75%
ďReduces the progression of DR by 50%
ďHbA1c 6-7%
ď1% decrease in HbA1c associated with lowering
the
âŚrisk of retinopathy 40%
âŚprogression to sight threatening DR 25%
âŚrisk for laser 24%
âŚrisk for blindness 5%
Controlling Diabetic Retinopathy Risk
10. ďTight BP control associated with lower risk
of
ďRetinopathy progression 35%
ďNeed for laser 35%
ďRisk for vision loss 50%
ď Others: Hyperlipidemia(lipidil) / Smoking and
Alcohol consumption / Pregnancy / Body Mass
Index / Inflammation
Controlling Diabetic Retinopathy Risk
11. ⢠It is estimated only ½ the Australians with diabetes have a
regular eye exam and 1/3rd have never been checked.
⢠Often there are no symptoms of diabetic retinopathy until
serious damage has occurred.
⢠Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent severe vision
loss
⢠Eye examination every Year is recommended for people
with diabetes.
Evidence indicates that early detection of Diabetic
Retinopathy by regular eye examination, is key to
reducing vision loss and blindness from diabetes.
13. Microvascular leakage
ďLoss of pericytes results in distention of
weak capillary wall producing
microaneurysms which leak.
ďBlood-retinal barrier breaks down causing
plasma constituents to leak into the retina
â retinal oedema, hard exudates
14. Microvascular occlusion
ďBasement membrane thickening,
endothelial cell damage, deformed RBCs,
platelet stickiness and aggregation
ďVascular Endothelial Growth Factor
(VEGF) is produced by hypoxic retina
ďVEGF stimulates the growth of shunt and
new vessels
15. Classification of DR
I. Non-proliferative DR (NPDR)
⢠Mild
⢠Moderate
⢠Severe
⢠Very severe
II. Proliferative DR (PDR)
III. Clinically significant macular oedema
(CSME)
- May exist by itself or along with NPDR and PDR
16. ⢠At least one microaneurysm - earliest clinically detectable
lesion
ďˇ Retinal hemorrhages
ďˇ Hard or soft exudates
Mild NPDR
17. Moderate NPDR
⢠Microaneurysms
and/or dot and blot
hemorrhages in at
least 1 quadrant
⢠Soft exudates
(Cotton wool spots)
⢠Venous beading or
IRMA (intraretinal
microvascular
abnormalities)
IRMA
18. Mild and Moderate Non- proliferative DR
was previously known as Background DR
19. Severe NPDR
Any one of the following 3 features is present
⢠Microaneurysms and intraretinal
hemorrhages in all 4 quadrants
⢠Venous beading in 2 or more quadrants
⢠Moderate IRMA in at least 1 quadrant
Known as the 4-2-1 rule
21. Severe and Very severe Non-proliferative
DR was known as the Pre-proliferative DR
22. Clinically significant Macular
Oedema
⢠Retinal oedema close to fovea
⢠Hard exudates close to fovea
⢠Presents with dimness of vision
⢠By itself or along with NPDR or PDR
23. CSME â Hard exudates close to fovea and
associated retinal thickening
30. Neovascular Glaucoma
⢠Complication of rubeosis iridis
⢠New vessels cause angle closure
⢠Mechanical obstruction to aqueous outflow
⢠Intra ocular pressure rises
⢠Pupil gets distorted as iris gets pulled
⢠Eye becomes painful and red
⢠Loss of vision
32. PREVENTION OF COMPLICATIONS
⢠By early institution of appropriate treatment
⢠This requires early detection of DR in its
asymptomatic treatable condition
⢠By routine fundus examination of all
Diabetics (cost effective screening)
⢠And appropriate referral to ophthalmologist
33. ďMild and Moderate NPDR
- No specific treatment for retinopathy
- Good metabolic control to delay
progression
- Control of associated Hypertension,
Anemia and Renal failure
ďSevere and very severe NPDR
â Close follow up by Ophthalmologist
34. ďClinically significant macular oedema
- Laser photocoagulation to minimise risk of
visual loss
â Retinal laser photocoagulation as per the
judgment of ophthalmologist (in high risk eyes)
â It converts hypoxic retina (which produces
ANGIOGENIC factors) into anoxic retina (which
canât)
ďProliferative DR
35. Screening protocol for Diabetic
retinopathy
1. Screening once in a 1 year
⢠Diabetics with normal fundus
⢠Mild NPDR
2. Screening once in 6 months
⢠Moderate NPDR
36. Referral to Ophthalmologist
⢠Visual Symptoms
â Diminished visual acuity
â Seeing floaters
â Painful eye
⢠Fundus findings
- Macular oedema/hard exudates close to fovea
- Proliferative DR
- Vitreous hemorrhage
- Moderate to severe and very severe NPDR
- Retinal detachment
- Cataract obscuring fundus view
38. Simulation of defective vision as experienced by a
Diabetic whose vision has been affected by Diabetic
retinopathy
Normal Defective
39. DIRECT OPHTHALMOSCOPY
⢠Examination of the fundus of the eye
⢠To screen for Diabetic Retinopathy
⢠After dilatation of both eyes with 0.5%
tropicamide
46. DRUSEN
Age related Macular degeneration: Note the
drusen. Not to be confused with Hard exudates. There
are no microaneurysms or dot/blot hemorrhages.
