Dr Pradeep Dindore, Dr Ankita Chavan, Dr Milind Sabnis

Abstract :

 Diabetic retinopathy is the third most important cause for visual impairment.There are approximately 93 million people with Diabetic Retinopathy(DR). Longer diabetes duration and poorer glycemic and blood pressure control are strongly associated with DR.

Diabetic retinopathy is one of the few ophthalmic diseases that have a defined preventive measure to delay progression of the disease and consequent visual loss. The estimated high prevalence of diabetes by 2025 in India is a matter of concern considering the potential for vision loss associated with diabetic retinopathy. This hospital based  study is conducted to find out efficacy of retinal photocoagulation as a standalone therapy for  arresting progression of diabetic retinopathy and improvement of visual acuity
