In 68 diabetic patients a study was made of the state of the circulation in the central artery of the retina and the uveal tract. There was a parallel aggravation of the retinal circulation and of the blood supply in the uveal tract. These disturbances were not infrequently determined before the appearance of ophthalmological changes and were aggravated with increase in the duration and severity of the disease. A wide use of ophthalmodynamometry and rheoophthalmography for the determination of early signs of ophthalmopathy in the patients with diabetes mellitus is recommended.
