Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R, Diabetic retinopathy affected an estimated 126 million people in 2010, which is expected to rise to 191 million by 2030, leading to a global epidemic. It is most common in people with type 1 diabetes mellitus, and about 60% of type 2 diabetes patients are affected by diabetic retinopathy. Although laser photo regulation and controlling systemic blood glucose, cholesterol, and lipid levels can help manage the disease, surgery is often needed for diabetic retinopathy due to its rapid progression.
