No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Studies conducted assessing diabetic eye disease have shown a progression of diabetic retinopathy with rapid improvement of glycemic control during pregnancy and in patients with type 1 diabetes. It is also well documented that bariatric surgery may result in rapid improvement of glycemic control in obese patients with type 2 diabetes. To our knowledge the progression of diabetic eye disease seen in pregnancy and type 1 diabetes has not been studied in obese type 2 diabetics undergoing bariatric surgery. To this end, this study will examine the effects of rapid glycemic control which is seen in type 2 diabetics following bariatric surgery on the progression of diabetic retinopathy.
