DIABETIC RETINOPATHY A CHALLENGE

Abstract

I AM very conscious of the fact that, being an ophthalmologist, I have only a superficial knowledge of diabetes mellitus and also that, not being associated with a diabetic clinic, I have had only limited opportunities of studying its retinal complications. Any observations I make will, therefore, be open to the criticism that they would not form the basis of a statistical analysis. For these shortcomings I ask your indulgence.
