• Treatments work best before vision is lost
• Many patients are diagnosed only after vision is lost
• Vision loss is a late symptom of diabetic eye disease
• Risk factor control is essential

Diabetic Eye DiseasePathophysiology – Capillary Closure
• Basement membrane thickening
• Increased platelet and erythrocyte adhesion
• Closure of capillaries
High blood sugar levels affect retinal capillariesHigh blood sugar levels affect retinal capillaries

Diabetic Eye DiseasePathophysiology – Capillary Closure
• Proliferative diabetic retinopathy– Damaged capillaries
close off– Ischemic retina
secretes VEGF– New vessels form in
response to VEGF
