Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes that affects the eyes. It damages the blood vessels in the retina and can lead to vision loss over time if not treated. People with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, especially those who have had the disease for a long time, are at higher risk. Symptoms may include blurred vision, spots in vision, and eye pain. Treatment focuses on controlling blood sugar and blood pressure as well as laser treatments or surgery in severe cases to prevent further vision loss.

An Overview of Diabetic Eye Disease
This document provides an overview of diabetic eye disease written by Dr. Anthony Roberts, an eye physician who has performed over 55,000 refractive procedures. It states that diabetes can affect the eyes and cause issues like cataracts, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy. Specifically, it notes that cataracts may develop in younger diabetics, glaucoma increases eye pressure and risks nerve damage, and diabetic retinopathy damages retinal blood vessels and is a leading cause of blindness but can be treated.
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.
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.

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.
Lecture 3: Diabetic Retinopathy
This document provides information about diabetes and diabetic retinopathy for medical students. It outlines learning objectives related to understanding diabetes demographics, diagnosis, complications, and treatments. Key points include that diabetes affects over 29 million Americans and has significant medical costs. Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness and its progression can be slowed by controlling blood sugar and blood pressure. The document also defines the stages of diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular edema.
How Diabetes Damages Your Eyes
Diabetes can damage the eyes and is a leading cause of blindness. Regular eye exams are important for diabetics to check for problems and prevent vision loss. High blood sugar can damage the tiny blood vessels in the retina, restricting blood flow and oxygen. Over time, this can cause diabetic retinopathy, where vessels swell and leak blood into the eyes. More advanced retinopathy can lead to retinal detachment and blindness. Other common diabetic eye diseases include glaucoma, from high blood pressure damaging the optic nerve, and cataracts, which diabetics may develop earlier.

Diabetic ophthalmopathy
This document discusses diabetic ophthalmopathy, a common sight-threatening complication of diabetes. It begins by stating that diabetes affects about 3% of the global population. Next, it describes the various extra-retinal effects diabetes can have on the eye, including cataracts, glaucoma, retinal vascular diseases, and infections. A major section then focuses on diabetic retinopathy, including its pathogenesis, risk factors, various stages from non-proliferative to proliferative, and management through careful monitoring, laser treatment, and in advanced cases, vitreo-retinal surgery. The document aims to outline the ocular effects of diabetes and treatment approaches for associated conditions like diabetic retinopathy.
Diabetic disease[1]
Diabetic retinopathy is 25 times more likely to cause blindness in diabetics compared to non-diabetics. The risk increases with longer duration of diabetes, with 50% of patients having retinopathy after 10 years of diabetes diagnosed before age 30 and 90% after 30 years. Microvascular changes in the retina like leakage, hemorrhages, and occlusions can lead to proliferative diabetic retinopathy, characterized by the growth of abnormal blood vessels which can bleed or cause retinal detachment if left untreated. Early annual eye exams and prompt laser treatment when abnormalities are detected can help stabilize the condition and prevent vision loss.

Diabetes And Eye
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.
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 Eye Disease
This document provides an overview of diabetic eye disease (diabetic retinopathy). It discusses the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy, symptoms, diagnostic techniques and signs. It describes the pathophysiology of diabetes mellitus and how it relates to damage in the retina. Management of diabetic eye disease and associated conditions are also mentioned.
DIABETIC RETINOPATHY
Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes that affects the small blood vessels in the retina. It is the leading cause of blindness in working age adults. Strict control of blood sugar and blood pressure can help prevent and slow the progression of diabetic retinopathy. Annual eye exams are important for early detection and treatment if needed to prevent vision loss. As diabetic retinopathy progresses, it is classified into mild, moderate, and severe non-proliferative stages and proliferative stage. Treatments include laser therapy and anti-VEGF injections to prevent further vision loss.
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.

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 disease that damages the blood vessels of the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye (the retina). It is the leading cause of blindness among American adults aged 20-74. Nearly half of all diabetics have some signs of retinopathy. Early detection and treatment can help prevent vision loss from the disease. Controlling blood sugar levels, laser treatments, and vitrectomy surgery are common treatments used to manage diabetic retinopathy.
Diabetes melitis & eye part 1 presentation at www.eyenirvaan.com
This document provides an overview of diabetes mellitus and its effects on the eye. It discusses how diabetes impacts various parts of the eye including the optics, lids, conjunctiva, cornea, iris, lens, accommodation, intraocular pressure, vitreous, retina, optic disc and glaucoma. Specific retinal conditions caused by diabetes like diabetic retinopathy and maculopathy are explained in detail. Treatment options for diabetic macular edema like laser photocoagulation and its focal versus grid approaches are also summarized.
Diabetic retinopathy
This document discusses diabetic retinopathy and its effects on the eye. It begins by outlining the various parts of the eye that can be affected by diabetes, including the lids, conjunctiva, cornea, iris, angle, lens, vitreous, retina, optic nerve, and sixth nerve. It then focuses on diabetic retinopathy, explaining that it has no initial symptoms, screening is important, and that intensive therapy and good blood glucose control can slow its progression. The document also describes treatments like laser therapy to preserve vision. It emphasizes that nearly all people with diabetes will develop some retinopathy and regular screening is needed to catch and treat it early.
Diabetic retinopathy
This condition name “Diabetic retinopathy” is characterized by damage to the retina caused by severe complications of diabetes mellitus. Diabetic retinopathy can lead to blindness if not treated on time. It is possible to prevent early blindness because of diabetic retinopathy with the help of routine checks and effective management of underlying diabetes.
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.
Gene therapy
Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of vision loss, caused by neovascularization and vascular leakage due to prolonged high blood sugar levels. Current treatments using anti-VEGF drugs require frequent reinjections that cause side effects. Gene therapy offers prolonged expression to reduce the need for multiple injections. The document proposes delivering genes for angiopoietins 1, 2, and 4 via an AAV vector in a rat model of diabetic retinopathy, as angiopoietins may help prevent neovascularization and leakage in patients who do not fully respond to anti-VEGF treatment. This could minimize vision loss and blindness for those with advanced or resistant disease.

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 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 group 7 period 2 new 4
Diabetic retinopathy affects people with long-term diabetes, especially those who are Hispanic or African American, and can occur at any age but generally after 30 years of diabetes. It damages the blood vessels in the retina and can cause vision impairment or blindness if left untreated. Symptoms include blurry or distorted vision, but it often has no symptoms in early stages. Treatment options include laser surgery, injections, and vitrectomy surgery to repair the retina. Maintaining good blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol control through diet and exercise can help prevent or slow the progression of diabetic retinopathy.

Ueda2016 diabetic retinopathy - sehnaz karadeniz
This document provides an overview of diabetic retinopathy. It discusses that diabetic retinopathy is a common complication of diabetes that reflects widespread microcirculatory disease. It can progress from nonproliferative to proliferative diabetic retinopathy and may involve diabetic macular edema. Screening for and treatment of diabetic retinopathy are important but patient compliance with screening recommendations can be low. Management involves laser treatment, anti-VEGF therapy, and controlling risk factors through glycemic and blood pressure management. Genetic factors also contribute to diabetic retinopathy risk and development.
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.
Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness that is associated with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. It results from glycation and damage to the retinal blood vessels over time. Early stages are asymptomatic, but can progress to cause vision loss through edema, hemorrhage, or the growth of abnormal new blood vessels. Risk increases with longer duration of diabetes. Management focuses on tight glycemic control through medication and lifestyle changes, as well as regular eye exams and treatments such as laser photocoagulation or anti-VEGF injections to prevent vision loss.
Diabetic retinopathy
This document provides information on diabetic retinopathy including:
1. It defines diabetic retinopathy as progressive damage to the retinal vasculature caused by chronic hyperglycemia, affecting up to 40% of diabetics. Proliferative diabetic retinopathy affects 5-10% and can lead to vision loss.
2. Risk factors include duration of diabetes, poor blood sugar control, pregnancy, hypertension, and nephropathy. The pathogenesis involves cellular damage from hyperglycemia and changes to the capillaries leading to leakage, occlusion, and neovascularization.
3. Treatment depends on the severity and includes laser photocoagulation, anti-VEGF injections, and vitrect
Diabetic retinopathy
Diabetic retinopathy is a chronic, progressive disease affecting the retinal microvasculature due to prolonged hyperglycemia. It is a leading cause of vision loss among working-age adults. The document discusses the pathogenesis, risk factors, clinical features, classification, investigations, and treatment of diabetic retinopathy. Laser therapy, intravitreal anti-VEGF drugs, steroids and vitrectomy are used to treat proliferative retinopathy and diabetic macular edema in order to prevent vision loss. Strict glycemic control and management of associated risk factors are important to prevent the progression of diabetic retinopathy.
Diabetic retinopathy for medical student
This document discusses diabetic retinopathy and its management. It notes that diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness and consists of complications like macular edema, cataracts, and proliferative retinopathy. Proliferative retinopathy involves the growth of weak, abnormal blood vessels in the retina. Risk factors include the duration of diabetes and poor blood sugar control. Treatment involves good blood sugar control, laser therapy to destroy abnormal blood vessels or reduce macular edema, and anti-VEGF drugs to inhibit vascular growth. Vitrectomy may also be used to treat severe complications like retinal detachment. Regular eye exams are important for early detection and treatment of diabetic retinopathy.
Diabetic macular edema 2011 (1)
Novel Development in treatment of Diabetic Macular Edema, by Dr. Fritz Allen, presented at VO, Lecture Series 11, Feb 20, 2011
COPE Course ID: 30657-PS
Diabetic retinopathy
This document describes diabetic retinopathy (DR), its classification, pathogenesis, risk factors, screening protocols, and treatment. DR is classified as non-proliferative DR (NPDR) or proliferative DR (PDR). NPDR is further divided into mild, moderate, severe, and very severe stages based on lesions seen. PDR is characterized by new blood vessel growth. Clinically significant macular edema (CSME) can occur and cause vision loss. Screening intervals depend on DR severity. Laser treatment is used for CSME, PDR, and sometimes severe NPDR to prevent vision loss complications like vitreous hemorrhage or retinal detachment. Good glucose and blood pressure control can delay DR progression.
New diabetic retinopathy
- Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness in people aged 20-74 and affects individuals in their most productive years. The risk and severity of retinopathy increases with longer duration of diabetes and poorer blood glucose control.
- The disease involves microvascular changes including microaneurysms, hemorrhages, hard exudates, and new abnormal blood vessel growth. Without treatment, this can lead to vision loss from macular edema, retinal detachment, or vitreous hemorrhage.
- Treatment involves managing blood sugar and blood pressure, as well as laser photocoagulation surgery or intravitreal injections to prevent vision loss from proliferative retinopathy or macular edema.

Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness worldwide. Prolonged hyperglycemia can damage retinal blood vessels and neurons. Over time, this can lead to vision loss through retinal edema, hemorrhage, fibrosis or neovascularization. Risk factors include duration and control of diabetes, hypertension, and nephropathy. Treatment focuses on laser photocoagulation and intravitreal injections to reduce edema or abnormal blood vessels, along with glycemic control to prevent progression. Regular screening is important to detect diabetic retinopathy early when treatment is most effective.

Diabetic retinopathy group 7 period 2 #
Diabetic retinopathy is damage to the retina caused by long-term diabetes. It affects people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, especially Hispanics and African Americans over 30 years old. Symptoms include blurred vision and potential complications like cataracts or retinal detachment. The disease infects blood vessels in the eyes, blocking them and causing bleeding and fluid buildup in the retina. Treatment focuses on controlling blood sugar and blood pressure as well as laser treatments and surgery to repair damage.

Diabetes-related Clinical Complications: Novel Approaches for Diagnosis and M...
Metabolic diseases such as hypertension, obesity, diabetes, and vascular diseases have reached epidemic proportions worldwide. In the past four decades, childhood and adolescent obesity has increased four-fold worldwide. During the same period, obesity in adults has doubled and diabetes has increased by four-fold. In China, India, and the USA, the number of prediabetes is more than diabetics. This population is at considerable risk for developing diabetes, its clinical complications, and acute vascular events. The management of modifiable risks for cardiometabolic risks has improved considerably. Several major studies have demonstrated, that robust management of modifiable risks for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), significantly reduces premature mortality from CVDs. Considering the progress made in the risk assessment, risk management, we feel strongly, that not much progress is made in the areas of primary prevention and early risk assessment, for clinical complications associated with metabolic diseases, in particular, diabetes. The majority of the clinical complications associated with diabetes are due to dysfunction of the vascular system or nervous system. Complications include vasculopathy leading to subclinical atherosclerosis, heart attacks, and stroke.
Complications of diabetes-paediatric and adolescent.pptx
Diabetes can cause many complications in children and adolescents if not properly managed. Type 1 diabetes is more common in young people and occurs when the pancreas cannot produce insulin. Type 2 diabetes is less common but increasing, caused by the body not properly using insulin. Complications include heart and blood vessel disease, kidney damage, eye damage, nerve problems, and mental health issues if blood sugar levels are not well controlled over a long period of time. Gestational diabetes can also cause complications for mothers and their babies like excess growth and low blood sugar in babies. Regular screening and lifestyle modifications can help reduce risks.

Hearing & Eye Age-Related Diseases
Presbycusis, also known as age-related hearing loss, is a debilitating disease with a complicated etiology that affects tens of millions of people worldwide and roughly half of those over 65 in the United States (Say et al., 2021). The loss is usually bilateral, causing difficulty hearing high-pitched tones and conversational speech (Meiner & Yeager, 2019). The causes of age-related hearing loss are thought to be genetic and environmental. Men are more affected by this condition than women. This condition's origin is yet unknown.
Some signs and symptoms that could be seen in patients with this condition are not answering when spoken to, talking loudly, paying attention to the speaker's lips, turning up the radio or TV volume, putting one palm over one ear, and tilting the head to one side when someone is speaking (Meiner & Yeager, 2019). The causes of presbycusis are multifaceted. In addition to physiologic and anatomical alterations brought on by aging-related deterioration, genetic factors are among the additional contributing elements (Cheslock & De Jesus, 2022). It is believed that glutamate signaling, glucocorticoids, and sex hormones all contribute to it. Hearing loss occurs more frequently in postmenopausal women who use progestin and a combination of hormone replacement therapy. Presbycusis has also been linked to exposure to loud noises and ototoxic substances such as salicylates, loop diuretics, aminoglycosides, and some chemotherapeutic drugs. Ototoxicity has also been linked to certain occupational and environmental exposures to toxins such as toluene, styrene, lead, carbon monoxide, mercury, and other toxins (Cheslock & De Jesus, 2022). This problem has also been associated to a history of ear infections and the presence of several systemic disorders.
Studies aimed at establishing a clear association for the cause have not been successful. As a result, the diagnosis entails eliminating other potential causes of hearing loss, such as infections, head trauma, metabolic disorders, vascular diseases, and heart disease (Meiner & Yeager, 2019). It is important for nurses when caring for patients with this condition to speak clearly and use a normal tone of voice. Patients and their families need to be instructed on how to use and where to obtain assistive listening devices (Meiner & Yeager, 2019). Nurses must educate patients and family members that when using hearing aids, they need to perform daily listening and battery checks. These devices must be stored in a hearing aid drying container with batteries removed.
Vision is an important sense that is needed to complete ADLs. Age-related changes and macular or.

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.share - Lions, tigers, AI and health misinformation, oh my!.pptx
