Article Synopsis
- Bariatric surgery may positively influence the progression of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in patients with type 2 diabetes, potentially reducing the risk of developing sight-threatening conditions.
- The study followed 152 patients for an average of 3 years, comparing those who underwent surgery with matched patients receiving routine care, revealing fewer cases of sight-threatening DR in the surgical group.
- Results indicated that patients who had bariatric surgery saw a lower progression rate of preproliferative DR and maculopathy compared to those who did not have surgery.
