Findings: Prevalence of retinopath was 5.6 percent mean age of subjects with retinopathy was 60.3 years old (SD=701) and mean duration of diabetes was 15 years (SD=7.1). Frequency of non prolifrative DIABETIC RETINOPATHY was 52.8 and 47.2 percent respectively. Our study showed that there are significant relationship between retinopathy and subjects age, high levels of fasting blood sugar, history of HYPERLIPIDEMIA, SMOKING and ischemic heart diseases (p<0.001). There are also significant relation ship between retinopathy and history of hypertension (p<0.05) in this study there was no relationship between retinopathy and sex, drugs used and history of stroke.Conclusions: Based on our findings we- suggest considering retinal examination in diabetic patient and controlling glucose level in normal values.
