Abstract

DIABETIC RETINOPATHY (DR) is one of the leading causes of blindness in the world. In USA it is the most important cause of blindness in the 20-74 years age group. Recent medical treatment and surgery can reduce the rate of blindness up to 90%. The most important causes of blindness in DIABETIC RETINOPATHY include, macular ischemia, macular edema, neovascularization on the disk, retina or iris. We don't know the exact frequency of DR and it causes in our population. The aim of this study was to determine patients at risk and early treatment to reduce costs and visual complications. A cross - sectional study was performed between Oct. 2000 and July 2001 on DIABETIC type II patients who were referred to the yazd DIABETIC center .Dilation of the pupil by a midriatic droplet indirect ophthalmoscopic examination and in some cases a +90 lens or a 3 mirror were used for examination of macula. Patients were divided into 6 groups according to the clinical findings: O) Without RETINOPATHY. I) Mild non-proliferative RETINOPATHY (NPR). II) Moderate NPR. III ) severe NPR . IV) proliferative RETINOPATHY and V) Proliferative RETINOPATHY with complications such as vitreous hemorrhage or deculman . CIME was also recorded. Data wase collected and results were statistically analysed by X2 using spss for windows. A total of 590 NIDDM patients were examined of which, 358 patients (60.7%) had no any signs of RETINOPATHY. One hundred and thirteen patients (19.3%) had mild NPR, 71 patients (12%) moderate NPR, 16 patients (12.7%) severe NPR 18 patients (3.1%), PDR without complications, and 14 patients (2. 4 %) PDR plus complications. In other words, 39.3'% patients had DIABETIC RETINOPATHY. The frequency of DIABETES in our province is considerably higher than the rest of the world (14 % VS 3 % ) and its occular complications are also higher (39.3% in Yazd vs world 25%).We concluded that age, BMI, blood sugar level & GLYCOLISED HEMOGLOBIN levels are important risk factors for occular complications in DIABETICs.
