Diabetic Retinopathy
KEY TEACHING POINTS
Three-quarters of patients with diabetic retinopathy have normal visual acuity.
The findings that best predict subsequent proliferative retinopathy are venous beading,
intraretinal microvascular abnormalities, and the extent of microaneurysms and hemorrhages. Soft and hard exudates are less predictive.
Specialists using direct ophthalmoscopy are more accurate than are general clinicians,
and examinations through dilated pupils are superior to nondilated ones.
Nonmydriatic digital images have proven accuracy and are commonly used to screen
large numbers of diabetic patients for retinopathy.
Introduction
I.
Diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness in adults aged 20 to 74 years.
1
Whether a patient develops retinopathy depends on the type and duration of diabetes: those with type 1 diabetes have a 0% risk of proliferative retinopathy at 5 years after diagnosis, 4% at 10 years and 50% at 20 years, whereas those with type 2 diabetes, especially if taking insulin, the risk is 3% to 4% at the time of diagnosis, 10% at 10 years and 20% at 15 years.
2
Once retinopathy develops, however, the best predic­tor of progression to sight-threatening retinopathy is the extent of retinopathy during the baseline examination: the higher the grade of retinopathy during the initial examination, the greater the risk of progression (Table 22.1). In type 1 diabetics, pregnancy increases the risk of progression 2.3-fold.
2
In large cross-sectional surveys of diabetic patients seen by general practitioners, sight­threatening retinopathy (i.e., proliferative retinopathy and more severe forms of nonproliferative retinopathy) is found in 5% to 15% of patients.
II.
The Findings
e findings of diabetic retinopathy are divided into nonproliferative changes, which occur within the retina, and proliferative changes, which are located on the inner surface of the retina or in the
11
vitreous.
e terms background retinopathy and preproliferative retinopathy are outdated and no
longer recommended, having been replaced by the grades of retinopathy shown in Table 22.1.
6–10
Diabetic retinopathy progresses in an orderly fashion through these grades.
A. NONPROLIFERATIVE CHANGES (FIG. 22.1)
3
e earliest changes to appear in diabetic retinopathy are microaneurysms, which are distinct red, round spots less than one-twelfth the diameter of an average optic disc, or 125 μm in its

*High-risk proliferative retinopathy is NVD >0.25 of disc area, NVD <0.25 of disc area and vitreous or preretinal hemorrhage, OR NVE >0.5 disc area and vitreous or preretinal hemorrhage. These figures assume that the patient is untreated.
Moderate, severe, and very severe nonproliferative retinopathy share the same fundoscopic findings, although
they differ in severity (based on standardized photographs) and the number of retinal quadrants involved.
Percentages are for patients whose baseline evaluation reveals proliferative retinopathy with less than high-risk characteristics.

longest dimension (the average optic disc is about 1500 μm in diameter; 125 μm is approximately the
width of an average major vein at the disc margin). with sharp borders; red spots with indistinct borders are blot hemorrhages. Both dot and blot hemorrhages are located in the inner retinal layers. Hard exudates (deposition of lipids in the inner retina) are small, white or yellowish-white deposits with sharp margins that often have a waxy or glistening appearance. Soft exudates (or cotton wool exudates) are ischemic swellings of the superficial nerve fiber layer, which appear as white, round, or oval patches with ill-defined, feathery edges. As retinal ischemia progresses, two other abnormalities appear: venous beading (veins resembling a string of beads) and intraretinal microvascular abnormalities (IRMA), which are extra tortuous vessels within the retina that may be either new vessels or dilated preexisting capillaries.
B.
PROLIFERATIVE RETINOPATHY
Proliferative retinopathy is new vessel formation (i.e., neovascularization) on the inner surface of the retina or vitreous, which threatens vision by increasing the risk of retinal detachment or vitreous hemorrhage. ese new vessels often resemble a small wagon wheel, with individual vessels radiating like spokes to a circumferential vessel forming the rim. is subdivided into neovascularization of the disc (within one disc diameter of the optic disc, abbreviated [NVD]) and neovascularization elsewhere (NVE). Of the two, NVD has a much worse visual prognosis.

Although both IRMA and neovascularization represent the formation of new blood vessels, IRMA is confined to the layers of the retina, whereas neovascularization is on the inner surface of the retina or vitreous (see the text).
C. MACULAR EDEMA
Macular edema, which may accompany any stage of nonproliferative or proliferative retinopathy, is very difficult to visualize using the direct ophthalmoscope, although important clues are rings of hard exudates (often surrounding the edematous area) and diminished visual acuity.

(anti-VEGF) significantly reduces the risk of subsequent visual loss.1 Retinal examination is the only way to detect these lesions, thereby making diabetic retinopathy one of the best examples of a disorder benefiting from an attentive physical examination.
e findings that best predict subsequent proliferative retinopathy are venous beading, intra­retinal microvascular abnormalities, and the extent of microaneurysms and hemorrhages. Soft exudates are less predictive, and the extent of hard exudates correlates poorly with subsequent proliferative retinopathy.

A. VISUAL ACUITY AND DIABETIC RETINOPATHY
Diminished visual acuity per se is a poor screening test for diabetic retinopathy (EBM Box 22.1: positive likelihood ratio [LR] = 1.5, negative LR not significant [NS]). Indeed, the most common causes of diminished visual acuity in diabetics are cataracts (49% of diabetics with diminished acuity) and macular degeneration (29%), not diabetic retinopathy (15%).

B. DIAGNOSTIC ACCURACY OF OPHTHALMOSCOPY
EBM Box 22.1 displays the accuracy of various methods in detecting sight-threatening retino-
pathy (i.e., proliferative changes and macular edema), using multiview dilated pupil retinal photo­graphs or slit-lamp biomicroscopy as the diagnostic standard. Not surprisingly, specialists using direct ophthalmoscopy perform better than general clinicians, and dilated examinations are supe­rior to nondilated ones (LRs 6.2 to 25.5; EBM Box 22.1). In comparison, many diabetic centers now routinely screen their patients for retinopathy using nonmydriatic photography, a test with excellent diagnostic accuracy (positive LR = 24.5, negative LR = 0.1).19*
Macular edema is rarely detected by general providers using direct ophthalmoscopy (sensitivity is close to 0%).20 Because many patients with macular edema have normal visual acuity (i.e., the sensitivity of “visual acuity worse than 20/30” for macular edema is only 38%),20 clinicians who screen for macular edema using just visual acuity are missing many patients who would benefit from treatment.
C. SCREENING RECOMMENDATIONS
Diabetic retinopathy is common, treatable, and detectable using simple tools. Consequently, it is the prototype of a disease that would benefit from organized screening. Table 22.2 reviews the screening schedule recommended by the American Diabetes Association.1 Given the stakes of missing serious retinopathy and the suboptimal performance of general clinicians using direct ophthalmoscopy, only clinicians with training and experience—in most cases, optometrists and ophthalmologists—should screen patients. Any patient with macular edema, more than moderate nonproliferative retinopathy, or proliferative retinopathy should be seen by eye care providers with experience in the management of diabetic retinopathy.

The Red Eye
KEY TEACHING POINTS
In patients with red eye, the finding of anisocoria or painful pupillary constriction increases
the probability of serious eye disease.
The presence of significant eye pain or visual blurring in the patient with red eye should
prompt referral to a specialist.
Bacterial conjunctivitis is more likely than viral or allergic conjunctivitis if there is
bilateral matting of the eyes, conjunctival redness obscuring tarsal vessels, or purulent discharge.
Introduction
I.
e term red eye refers to several acute inflammatory disorders of the eye, all of which produce promi­nent ocular erythema. For clinicians evaluating patients with the red eye, the most important decision is to distinguish serious disorders (e.g., iritis, keratitis, corneal abrasion, scleritis, or acute glaucoma) from more benign disorders of the conjunctiva (e.g., conjunctivitis, episcleritis, or subconjunctival hem­orrhage). All patients with serious disorders require urgent referral to an eye specialist. In patients with suspected conjunctivitis, distinguishing bacterial conjunctivitis from nonbacterial (viral, allergic) conjunctivitis is important because only bacterial conjunctivitis benefits from administration of topical antimicrobial eye drops. with identifying serious disease and on those distinguishing bacterial from nonbacterial conjunctivitis.
Descriptions of the red eye are as old as ophthalmologic records, figuring prominently in descriptions from ancient Egypt and classical Greece and Rome. descriptions likely suffered from trachoma or other contagious diseases of the eye. ophthalmologist Charles Saint Yves (1667–1736) is credited with the first clear description of iritis, including its characteristic redness, photophobia, pain, and decreased pupillary diameter.

The Findings
A. DISTINGUISHING SERIOUS FROM BENIGN DISEASE
e traditional signs of serious causes of the red eye are significant eye pain, visual blurring, pho­tophobia, and abnormalities of the pupil.
1. Visual Acuity
Benign causes of the red eye do not affect visual acuity, except for the temporary effects of purulent exudate in bacterial conjunctivitis, a blurriness that resolves when secretions are wiped away. In
