Classification
Mild NPDR
Moderate NPDR
Severe NPDR
Sign NPDR
Microaneurysm
Retinal hemorrhage
Dot or Blot Spot
Flame or Splinter shape hemorrhage
Hard exudate
Cotton wool Spot
Venous beading
Intra-retinal microvascular abnormalities
(IRMA)
Mild NPDR
Microaneurysm
Moderate NPDR
More microaneurysms
Scattered hard exudates
Cotton-wool spots
Severe NPDR
4-2-1 rule
4 quadrants of severe retinal hemorrhages
2 quadrants of venous beading
1 quadrant of IRMA
Microaneurysms may
leak plasma
constituents into the
retina
Retinal Hemorrhage
Capillary or microaneurysm is weakened rupture
intraretinal hemorrhages
Dot & blot hemorrhages
Deep hemorrhage - inner nuclear layer or outer plexiform layer
Usually round or oval
Dot hemorrhages - bright red dots (same size as large
microaneurysms)
Blot hemorrhages - larger lesions
Flame-shape or splinter hemorrhages
More superficial - in nerve fiber layer
Absorbed slowly after several weeks
Indistinguishable from hemorrhage in hypertensive retinopathy
May have co-existence of systemic hypertension BP must be checked
Dot & blot VS splinter
hemorrhage
Dot Spot VS Flame Shape
Dot Spot VS Flame Shape
Hemorrhage
Hard exudate
Macular ischemia
Retinal capillary non-perfusion
Progressive NPDR
Macular edema
Increased retinal vascular permeability
Seen in both NPDR and PDR
Focal or diffuse or mixed
Cause of visual loss in DR
Ass with planning for treatment
Focal macular edema
5% of DM pt.

Final stage of Uncontrolled PRD
Glaucoma (neovascularization)
Blindness from persistent vitreous hemorrhage,
tractional RD, opaque membrane formation,
Neovascularization of disc

Signs & symptoms of DR
Laser Photocoagulation**
Vitreoretinal surgery**
Intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide
Medical therapy
Prevention
Treat underlying conditions
Control blood sugar HbA1c < 7
Control blood pressure SBP < 130 mmHg
Control lipid profile TG, LDL
Correct anemia
Control diabetic nephropathy
Pregnancy makes DR worsen
Laser
