Article Synopsis
- Physicians need to understand the severity of diabetic retinopathy (DR) to effectively manage patients, and this study aims to connect retinal vascular abnormalities seen on widefield OCTA with DR grading from fundus photography.
- The study, involving 150 eyes from 82 patients with treatment-naïve DR, used imaging techniques to analyze features like the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) and areas of capillary nonperfusion (CNP) to assess the correlation with DR severity.
- Results indicated that larger FAZ sizes and differences in capillary changes were linked to more severe DR, with WF-OCTA also identifying subtle neovascularization that was missed by conventional fundus photography.
Purpose: To present clinical profile and risk factors of sight-threatening diabetic retinopathy (STDR) among people with age of onset of diabetes (AOD) <25 versus ≥25 years.
Methods: A retrospective chart analysis of consecutive patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR) n = 654) treated at 14 eye care centers across India between 2018 and 2019 was performed. Patients were divided into two groups, Group 1: AOD <25 years and Group 2: AOD ≥25 years.
