Diabetic eye disease: A review of screening and management recommendations

Abstract: The prevalence of diabetes is rapidly increasing, and it is now the leading cause of blindness worldwide. Although early detection of diabetic retinopathy is key to preventing vision loss, many patients do not receive appropriate examinations. Using a multidisciplinary approach, primary care physicians and eye care providers should follow evidence‐based recommendations for screening and monitoring diabetic patients while working to improve patients' glycaemic index, blood pressure, and metabolic risk factors. … Show more

“…In contrast to type 2 diabetes, patients with type 1 diabetes mainly present with hyperglycemia and insulin deficiency, accounting for only 5%–10% of the total number of patients with diabetes ( 32 ). Since most patients with type 1 diabetes are younger than type 2 diabetes patients, longer-term follow-up studies are required ( 13 ).…”

“…With the progression of diabetes, diabetic patients often suffer from ocular complications, such as diabetic retinopathy and macular edema, which can lead to decreased vision and metamorphopsia ( 32 ). These diabetic eye diseases also correlate to the prognosis of intraocular malignancies.…”

“…However, the use of metabolites in this area of treatment is relatively small compared to diabetic foot and DN. 67 At present, studies on the metabolomics of diabetic eye diseases are still in the initial stage. Through the analysis of aqueous humor, plasma, and other body fluids and related major metabolic pathways, it is slowly entering the diagnosis and treatment phase.…”

“…The growth of abnormal ocular blood vessels can be handled with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) drugs [66]. Bevacizumab and ranibizumab, which are respectively full antibody and antibody fragment that bind VEGF-A, and aflibercept, a recombinant protein that traps VEGF-A and VEGF-B, are the cornerstones for the therapy of diabetes-related macular edema and retinopathy [67]. They require intravitreal injection, which is not absent of complications [68].…”
