Diabetic Retinopathy - a Common Disease.
Klinische Monatsblätter Für Augenheilkunde 2023 September
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most common complications of diabetes mellitus and one of the leading causes of visual impairment in working age individuals in the western world. The treatment of DR depends on its severity, so it is of great importance to detect patients as early as possible, in order to initiate early treatment and preserve vision. Despite currently insufficient screening participation, patients with diabetes already visit ophthalmological practices and clinics above average. Their medical care, including DR diagnostics and treatment has been making up an increasing proportion of ophthalmic activity for years. Since the prevalence of diabetes is increasing dramatically worldwide and a further increase is also predicted for Germany, the challenge for ophthalmologists is likely to grow considerably. As the same time, the diagnostic possibilities for differentiating DR and the therapeutic measures, especially with IVOM therapy, are becoming more and more complex, which increases the time burden in everyday clinical practice. The hope to avoid healthcare deficits and to further improve screening rates and visual acuity prognosis in patients with DR is based, among other things, on camera-assisted screening supported by artificial intelligence. Better diabetes management to reduce the prevalence of DR, as well as longer-acting drugs to treat DR, could also improve the care and help reduce the burden on ophthalmology practices.
