Examination Schedule Source; AAO Guideline Joobin Khadamy. MD; Diabetes & Insuline conferece 10 Type 2 Diabetes The patient should be referred for ophthalmologic evaluation at the time of diagnosis. The time of onset of Type 2 diabetes is often difficult to determine and may precede the diagnosis by a number of years. Up to 3% of patients whose diabetes is first diagnosed at age 30 or later will have CSME or high-risk features at the time of the initial diagnosis of diabetes. About 30% of patients will have some manifestation of diabetic retinopathy at diagnosis.
Examination Schedule Source; AAO Guideline Joobin Khadamy. MD; Diabetes & Insuline conferece 11 Type 1 Diabetes Ophthalmic examinations are recommended beginning 5 years after the diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes and annually thereafter, which will detect the vast majority of Type 1 patients who require therapy. Adirect relationship between the prevalence and severity of retinopathy and the duration of diabetes . The development of vision-threatening retinopathy is rare in children prior to puberty. Among patients with Type 1 diabetes, substantial retinopathy may become apparent as early as 6 to 7 years after onset of the disease. Patient education about the visual impact of early glucose control is important and should begin with the onset of disease. for ophthalmologic evaluation at the time of diagnosis .

Iris neovascularization is best recognized prior to dilation. When neovascularization of the iris is present or suspected, or if the IOP is elevated, undilated gonioscopy can be used to detect neovascularization in the anterior chamber angle.

Importance of Dilated Fundus exam Source; AAO Guideline Joobin Khadamy. MD; Diabetes & Insuline conferece 16 A dilated pupil is preferred to ensure optimal examination of the retina, because only 50% of eyes are correctly classified for the presence and severity of retinopathy through undilated pupils. Slit-lamp biomicroscopy is the recommended method to evaluate retinopathy in the posterior pole and midperipheral retina. Examination of the peripheral retina is best performed using indirect ophthalmoscopy or slit-lamp biomicroscopy .
