Choroidal Changes and Duration of Diabetes

Abstract

Foveal retinal thickness was significantly decreased in patients with longer duration of diabetes. Duration of diabetes does not seem to be related to foveal chorodial thickness. On the other hand, the weak relation between creatinine and choroidal thickness may be evaluated further. The choroidal thickness changes that may be an early sign of nephropathy can be submitted to an easy, noninvasive scanning test at the same time.
