The most prevalent microvascular ocular consequence of diabetes is diabetic retinopathy (DR). It's now known to be an inflammatory neurovascular consequence, with neuronal injury/dysfunction occurring before clinical microvascular damage. Importantly, the same pathophysiologic mechanisms that damage the pancreatic -cell (e.g., inflammation, epigenetic changes, insulin resistance, fuel excess, and abnormal metabolic environment) also cause cell and tissue damage, increasing the risk of all complications, including diabetic retinopathy. Over the last decade, treatments for diabetic macular edoema (DME) and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), two vision-threatening consequences of diabetes, have vastly improved.
