Diabetes can cause several eye problems by damaging the retina such as diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular edema. Around 25% of diabetics have some form of diabetic retinopathy, which increases to 60% for those with type 2 diabetes after 20 years, so annual eye exams are important for early detection and treatment. Laser treatment can be used to treat more severe cases of retinopathy and prevent vision loss, but screening and management of blood sugar levels are crucial to reduce the risk of eye damage from diabetes.

Diabetes and eye
The document discusses diabetes and its effects on the eye. It notes that India has a diabetes prevalence of 9.09% and that routine health checks can detect diabetes. It explains that diabetes can cause three main eye conditions: cataract, where the lens becomes opaque; glaucoma, where fluid pressure inside the eye increases; and diabetic retinopathy, where high blood sugar damages small blood vessels in the retina. It stresses the importance of regular dilated eye exams every 3 months and monitoring blood glucose and cholesterol levels to manage diabetes and reduce risks to the eye.

Ocular Manifestation of Diabetes Mellitus
The document summarizes key points from a conference on diabetes and insulin. It discusses the various ocular manifestations of diabetes, including retinopathy, neuropathy, glaucoma and cataracts. It notes that up to 95% of those with type 1 diabetes and 60% of those with type 2 diabetes develop retinopathy. Risk factors include blood sugar levels, blood pressure, duration of diabetes, blood lipids, ethnicity and pregnancy. Screening guidelines are provided based on diabetes type and risk level. Imaging techniques like OCT and treatments like anti-VEGF injections plus laser therapy are reviewed. Novel research areas are also highlighted.
Refractive changes in Diabetic Mellitus (Optometry Management)
A 41-year-old female presented with difficulty reading small prints and using her cellphone for 6 months. She was diagnosed with hyperopic presbyopia but returned with worsening vision. Her blood sugar was found to be elevated, diagnosing her with diabetes mellitus. Diabetes can cause refractive changes, cataracts, and retinopathy due to physiological changes in the eye. A full ocular examination is important for managing diabetic patients.
Diabetic eye disease
Over 112,000 people in Indiana have diabetic retinopathy, which is around 20% of diabetics in the state. About 60% of diabetics receive an annual eye exam, but each year between 12,000 to 24,000 new cases of blindness occur from diabetic retinopathy. Diabetic retinopathy is caused by changes in the blood vessels in the eye and can be detected and treated through annual dilated eye exams and procedures like laser surgery. Maintaining good control of blood sugar and receiving regular eye exams can help reduce the risk of vision loss from diabetic eye disease.
Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is damage to the retina caused due to complications arising from diabetes. This may eventually lead to blindness. Diabetic retinopathy affects those with high blood sugar over a prolonged period of time. Too much blood sugar can destroy the blood vessels located at the back of the eye, preventing the retina from receiving the much needed nutrients to maintain vision.
In some with prolonged diabetic retinopathy, the blood vessels may swell and leak fluid; while in others abnormal new blood vessels may grow on the surface of the retina causing the light-sensitive tissue to gradually lose vision. Contrary to belief, diabetic retinopathy generally affects both the eyes.

Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes that affects the retina. It begins as non-proliferative retinopathy and can progress to proliferative retinopathy, causing new blood vessels to form that can bleed. Macular edema is swelling of the macula and a leading cause of vision loss. Screening is important as early treatment with laser therapy can prevent vision loss. Intensive control of blood sugar, blood pressure, and lipids can reduce the risk and progression of retinopathy.
Diabetic retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes that affects the blood vessels in the retina. It has four stages from mild nonproliferative retinopathy to proliferative retinopathy. Symptoms include blurred vision and gradual vision loss. Tight control of blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol is important for prevention, as is not smoking and regular eye exams by an eye doctor skilled in treating diabetic retinopathy. Exams should be yearly or every 2-3 years depending on risk level.
Diabetic retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes, caused by high blood sugar levels damaging the back of the eye (retina). It can cause blindness if left undiagnosed and untreated. However, it usually takes several years for diabetic retinopathy to reach a stage where it could threaten your sight.
The retina is the light-sensitive layer of cells at the back of the eye that converts light into electrical signals. The signals are sent to the brain which turns them into the images you see.
The retina needs a constant supply of blood, which it receives through a network of tiny blood vessels. Over time, a persistently high blood sugar level can damage these blood vessels in 3 main stages:
background retinopathy – tiny bulges develop in the blood vessels, which may bleed slightly but don't usually affect your vision
pre-proliferative retinopathy – more severe and widespread changes affect the blood vessels, including more significant bleeding into the eye
proliferative retinopathy – scar tissue and new blood vessels, which are weak and bleed easily, develop on the retina, this can result in some loss of vision
Diabetic retinopathy
This document provides an overview of diabetic eye disease and its treatment. It begins with an introduction and discusses pathogenesis, classification, signs, and advanced complications such as retinopathy and macular edema. Risk factors for progression are described, including duration of diabetes, glycemic control, hypertension, and nephropathy. Treatment focuses on glycemic and blood pressure control as well as laser photocoagulation, intravitreal anti-VEGF agents, and steroids to treat macular edema. Several major clinical trials are summarized that demonstrate the benefits of tighter glucose and blood pressure control, as well as anti-VEGF therapies, on slowing progression of diabetic retinopathy and vision outcomes.
Non proliferative diabetic retinopathy by phaneendra akana
Non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) is a complication of diabetes that causes progressive damage to the retinal blood vessels from high blood sugar levels. It has early stages where there are no symptoms, followed by blurred vision if untreated. Risk factors include the duration of diabetes and poor blood sugar control. As NPDR progresses, it can be classified from mild to severe based on findings like microaneurysms, hemorrhages, cotton-wool spots, and venous changes. Laser treatment may be used if the disease threatens vision. Maintaining good blood sugar control through diet, medication and regular eye exams can help prevent or delay vision loss from diabetic retinopathy.

Diabetic retinopathy
This document discusses diabetic retinopathy, its causes, stages, treatments, and prevention. It is progressive retinal vessel dysfunction caused by long-term hyperglycemia. Key factors that contribute to its development include hypertension, hyperlipidemia, female sex, pregnancy, smoking, obesity, and poor metabolic control. Stages include non-proliferative and proliferative retinopathy. Treatments include anti-VEGF drugs, laser photocoagulation, vitrectomy, and strict control of blood sugar and blood pressure to prevent its progression.
Diabetic retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is caused by damage to the blood vessels in the retina from chronic hyperglycemia. It is the most common retinal vascular disease and a leading cause of vision loss. The risk and severity of diabetic retinopathy increases with longer duration of diabetes, poorer blood glucose control, and presence of other complications like hypertension. The pathogenesis involves microvascular changes like capillary non-perfusion and death of pericytes, as well as increased vascular permeability and neo-vascularization due to elevated levels of vasoactive growth factors. Strict control of blood glucose and other cardiovascular risk factors can help prevent and slow the progression of this vision-threatening condition.

DIABETES MELLITUS AND DIABETIC EYE DISEASE
1) Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by high blood glucose levels resulting from either the body not producing enough insulin or cells ignoring the insulin.
2) There are two main types of diabetes - type 1 where the body does not produce insulin and always requires insulin treatment, and type 2 where cells ignore insulin and may be managed with diet, exercise or oral medication initially but may later require insulin.
3) Uncontrolled diabetes can lead to serious complications affecting the eyes (such as retinopathy and macular edema), kidneys, nerves, heart, and blood vessels. Intensive control and treatment can help prevent or delay these complications.

1. The study found that levels of IGFBP3, a protein that inhibits IGF-1 signaling, were significantly higher (2.8-fold) in tears of diabetic patients compared to non-diabetic controls.
2. Culturing human corneal epithelial cells under high glucose conditions similar to diabetic tears also increased IGFBP3 levels secreted by the cells.
3. The increased IGFBP3 levels blocked phosphorylation of the IGF-1 receptor, suggesting IGFBP3 may attenuate normal IGF-1 signaling in the diabetic cornea and contribute to corneal complications in diabetes.

Based on the information provided:
- Betty should receive her usual Lantus dose as scheduled since it is a basal insulin that works continuously to control her blood sugar throughout the day and night. Missing the dose could lead to hyperglycemia.
- She should not receive any Humulin R (regular insulin) since she is NPO for surgery and regular insulin requires food to avoid hypoglycemia.
- She may receive her usual Humalog dose if her blood sugar is elevated, as Humalog is a rapid-acting insulin used to control post-meal blood sugars. However, since her current blood sugar of 130mg/dL is in a reasonable range, the Humalog dose can be held until after her surgery when she

There are four main types of diabetes: type 1, type 2, gestational diabetes, and pre-diabetes. Type 1 is usually diagnosed in childhood and requires daily insulin injections. Type 2 is the most common type and is often linked to obesity. Gestational diabetes occurs during pregnancy, and pre-diabetes means blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as type 1 or 2. Common symptoms of diabetes include frequent urination, thirst, hunger, and fatigue. Testing involves fasting plasma glucose tests and oral glucose tolerance tests. Managing diabetes involves diet, exercise, medication and monitoring blood sugar levels. Long-term complications can affect the heart, kidneys, eyes, nerves and skin if diabetes is

F14 aus diabetes & your eyes
People with diabetes have an increased risk of eye complications from high blood glucose levels, including retinopathy, macular edema, and cataracts. These complications can lead to vision loss if left untreated, but regular eye exams and early treatment can prevent vision loss in 98% of cases. Early detection and treatment of complications is important to preserve vision, as treatment can usually prevent further deterioration even if vision loss has already occurred.

Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is the most common
diabetic eye disease and a leading cause of blindness in American adults. It is
caused by changes in the blood vessels of the retina.
In some people with diabetic retinopathy,
blood vessels may swell and leak fluid. In other people, abnormal new blood
vessels grow on the surface of the retina. The retina is the light-sensitive
tissue at the back of the eye. A healthy retina is necessary for good vision.
If you have diabetic retinopathy, at
first you may not notice changes to your vision. But over time,
diabetic retinopathy can get worse and cause vision loss. Diabetic
retinopathy usually affects both eyes.

It discusses how the eye works similarly to a camera and describes common refractive errors like myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. Non-surgical and surgical correcting options for refractive errors are presented, including glasses, contact lenses, LASIK surgery, and lens replacement surgery. Diabetic retinopathy and its progression if left untreated is summarized. The document emphasizes the importance of eye exams and blood sugar/blood pressure control for preventing vision damage in diabetic patients. Eye donation and corneal transplantation procedures are briefly described to encourage donation.
10. 2 disorders of retina
This document discusses diabetic retinopathy, which is damage to the retina caused by diabetes. It can be non-proliferative or proliferative. Symptoms may include blurred or fluctuating vision. Diagnosis involves eye exams and imaging tests. Treatment options include laser surgery, injections of corticosteroids or anti-VEGF drugs, and vitrectomy surgery in severe cases. Nursing care focuses on managing risks, teaching patients how to care for their eyes, and reducing anxiety.

This document summarizes diabetic retinopathy (DR), including its causes, risk factors, classifications, complications, treatments, and prevention strategies. DR is caused by damage to the small blood vessels in the retina from poorly controlled diabetes. It can be classified as non-proliferative DR or proliferative DR depending on whether abnormal blood vessel growth is present. Risk factors include the duration and control of diabetes, hypertension, and nephropathy. Treatments include intensive glycemic control, laser therapy, and medications that may inhibit damaging pathways like sorbitol. Regular eye exams are important for monitoring and preventing vision loss from DR.

Eyes
This document discusses how diabetes can damage the retina and cause vision loss or blindness. It explains that excess blood glucose in diabetes can destroy the retina by damaging the tiny blood vessels that supply it with nutrients and oxygen. Over time, this causes various changes in the retina like microaneurysms, leaking of fluids, and growth of abnormal new blood vessels which can lead to vision impairment or loss. Regular screening through tests like retinal photography and OCT scans can detect early signs of retinopathy so it can be treated before permanent vision damage occurs. Laser therapy, anti-VEGF injections, and vitrectomy surgery may help treat retinopathic changes and prevent further vision loss, but keeping blood sugar well-controlled is key
Early Detection Of Eye Diseases
There are several eye diseases called "silent thieves" of eyesight that don't cause symptoms but can permanently damage vision if not caught early. These include glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. Glaucoma is when optic nerve damage occurs without symptoms, often discovered during routine eye exams after age 40. Diabetic retinopathy damages blood vessels in the retina from diabetes and can cause vision loss if not treated with lasers early on. Macular degeneration and cataracts are also common age-related eye diseases that gradually impact central vision if not diagnosed and managed promptly. Early detection through regular eye exams is important to prevent vision loss from these "silent thieves" of eyesight.

Diabetic retinopathy
While many cases of Diabetic Retinopathy have little to no symptoms or warning signs, there are a few things to look out for especially if you are at-risk.
If you are experiencing floaters in your vision, blurred or fluctuating vision, or dark spots in your field of view it might be time to visit your eye care professional!
If caught early vision loss can be slowed, because of this it is important to have regular eye exams and to proactively manage your diabetes.
Understanding Retina Diseases
Understanding retina diseases is crucial for early detection and timely treatment, which can significantly impact the prognosis and quality of life for affected individuals. Regular eye exams and adopting a healthy lifestyle are essential steps in maintaining optimal eye health.

Prevent Diabetes
The document discusses strategies for preventing both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. For Type 1 diabetes, primary prevention efforts have focused on limiting islet cell inflammation and identifying triggering factors, though gene therapy may provide answers in the future. For Type 2 diabetes, lifestyle changes and targeting high-risk groups have shown promise for primary prevention at the population and individual levels. Secondary prevention of complications involves education, exercise, diet, glycemic control, blood pressure management, and specific treatments tailored for organs like the retina, kidneys, and feet. A multidisciplinary team approach is needed to effectively manage all prevention and treatment aspects of diabetes.
Diabetes Denial
This document discusses the challenges of managing chronic diseases like diabetes and outlines different types of patient segments based on their attitudes and approaches to treatment. It identifies those who are knowledgeable and disciplined in managing their condition positively, as well as those who are scared, have negative attitudes, low awareness, a short-sighted approach, or overconfidence in their knowledge. Managing chronic illnesses requires patients to balance treatment with daily life while preventing problems through ongoing vigilance and self-management.
Diagnozing Diabetes
The document outlines the diagnostic criteria for diabetes mellitus, including symptoms of excess urination and thirst plus random venous plasma glucose over 200 mg/dl or fasting venous plasma glucose over 126 mg/dl. It also describes a glucose tolerance test procedure involving a fasting blood sample, drinking 75g of glucose, and a 2-hour post-drink blood sample to diagnose diabetes if over 200 mg/dl. Reasons for delayed diabetes diagnosis include lack of awareness, negligence, economic factors, and access to medical services.
Endocrinology
This document discusses various medical conditions that can cause changes in pigmentation and other physical features. Excess pigmentation may be caused by Cushing syndrome due to high steroid levels or an overactive thyroid. Other conditions mentioned include vitiligo, thyroid eye disease, a pituitary tumor, low testosterone in men causing small testes, breast enlargement in boys, excess facial hair in girls often due to polycystic ovarian disease, and symptoms of polycystic ovarian disease like irregular periods, excess hair growth, and obesity.
Diabetes And Heart
Diabetes increases the risk of atherosclerosis and heart disease through metabolic abnormalities like high blood sugar and insulin resistance. These alterations affect the function of endothelial cells, platelets, and smooth muscle cells in the arteries, leading to atherosclerosis and destruction of the arteries. A typical type 2 diabetic patient has equal risk of future heart attack as a past heart attack survivor without any other heart problems. Over 75% of people with diabetes die from coronary atherosclerosis and managing diabetes involves following a healthy diet, regular exercise, medication adherence, and regular blood glucose testing.
Diabetes And Sugar
Diabetes management involves addressing more than just blood sugar levels. Key co-existing conditions include coronary artery disease, hypertension, atherosclerosis, obesity, and stroke. Lifestyle changes like healthy eating, exercise, and smoking cessation are important to manage these conditions. Treatment goals for hypertension in diabetes are less than 130/80 mm Hg to help prevent complications like heart disease, kidney failure, and stroke. A multidisciplinary team approach is needed to help patients manage their diabetes and related health issues.
Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a major health problem in India, affecting over 43 million women. Some key facts are that over 61 million Indians have osteoporosis, with 80% being women. Indians also have the highest rates of osteopenia globally. Osteoporotic fractures occur earlier in Indians compared to other populations and are more common in Indian men. Poor calcium intake, lack of exercise, vitamin D deficiency, and low bone mineral density contribute to higher osteoporosis rates in India. Osteoporosis poses a serious burden through increased fracture risk and reduced quality of life.
Diabetes And Kidney
This document discusses diabetic kidney disease and nephropathy. Diabetic nephropathy is the leading cause of renal failure, with 50% of dialysis patients having diabetes. Risk factors include poor blood glucose control, long diabetes duration, hypertension, and family history. Symptoms include protein in urine, high blood pressure, and declining renal function. Screening for microalbuminuria is important. Strict glycemic control and keeping blood pressure below 130/80 can prevent or slow progression. Treatment involves diet, medication, fluid management, and potentially renal replacement therapies like hemodialysis if kidney function declines severely.
Inject Insulin
The document provides instructions for administering insulin injections and discusses insulin delivery devices. It explains that insulin can be injected into the abdomen, outer arms, thighs, buttocks or hips. Modern insulin pens and pumps have made injections easier to use and virtually painless. The document also addresses common myths about insulin and notes that newer insulin analogues are more convenient and effective than older forms.
Diabetes
Diabetes mellitus is characterized by high blood sugar levels and a tendency to develop complications. It is diagnosed through fasting blood sugar levels over 125 mg/dl or random blood sugar over 199 mg/dl. Type 2 diabetes is a leading cause of blindness, stroke, heart attack, amputation and kidney disease. By 2025, it is estimated that over 300 million adults worldwide will have diabetes, with India and China having the highest numbers of people affected. Early diagnosis and treatment can help prevent or delay complications. Managing diabetes involves following a healthy diet, regular exercise, taking medication as prescribed, and regularly testing blood sugar levels.
Thyroid
The document discusses the thyroid gland and its relationship to other endocrine glands and hormones. It mentions that an enlarged thyroid gland is called a goiter and includes images showing a goiter, thyroid nodule, and prominent eyes associated with an overactive thyroid.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.Recently uploaded (20)
