3. Defeat Diabetes: Color Vision Test Detects Diabetic Retinopathy Before Vision Is to ID those who will progress to develop more severe retinal disease http://www.defeatdiabetes.org/Articles/retinopathy030612.htm

Home About Diabetes Complications Warning Signs ... Links Color Vision Test Detects Diabetic Retinopathy Before Vision is Lost posted 06/12/03 Automated tritan contrast threshold (TCT) assessment identifies sight-threatening diabetic retinopathy before vision is lost. Color vision often deteriorates before visual acuity is lost and morphological changes are detectable, Dr. Anthony G. Casswell, of Sussex Eye Hospital in Brighton, and colleagues explain. However, conventional color discrimination tests are not sensitive enough for widespread screening purposes. The authors performed automated TCT testing on 510 patients with best corrected visual acuity exceeding 20/30, and findings were compared to those obtained by slit lamp biomicroscopy. TCT was measured using a computerized, cathode ray tube-based system with a custom-made plug-in card stimulus generator. The TCT was 42.5 for patients with no retinopathy and 41.7 for those with background retinopathy. TCT deficits showed no association with duration of diabetes or the latest glycosylated hemoglobin results. Because it directly measures visual function, Dr. Casswell's team believes that TCT testing will "also identify early those subjects who will progress to develop more severe retinal disease."

Patients with diabetes are more likely to develop eye problems such as cataracts and glaucoma , but the disease’s affect on the retina is the main threat to vision. Most patients develop diabetic changes in the retina after approximately 20 years. The effect of diabetes on the eye is called diabetic retinopathy. Over time, diabetes affects the circulatory system of the retina.

Angeles Vision Clinic The web site has detailed information on many other eye conditions. Please feel free to visit our Home Page , check out other eye conditions on our Eye Conditions page or go to our Diabetic Eye Disease page. PREPROLIFERATIVE DIABETIC RETINOPATHY or Nonproliferative Diabetic Retinopathy Preproliferative (or Background) diabetic retinopathy is primarily a disease of retinal blood vessels. It is the result of two major processes affecting the retinal blood vessels: vessel closure and abnormal vessel permeability. RETINAL BLOOD VESSEL CLOSURE The earliest vessel closures in diabetic retinopathy are usually the capillaries. These small vessels are critical to the health of the retina, since they are needed to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the area and to carry away carbon dioxide and other waste products. The source of this capillary closure is not completely understood. Theories as to why these vessels close off include: Clumping of blood cells or other blood elements. Abnormality or damage to the endothelium (the cells lining the inner wall of the capillary).
