Episode description

In this episode of D-Talk, Dr. Covadonga Bascaran and Professor Sehnaz Karadeniz join host Phyllisa Deroze to discuss a common diabetes-related complication: diabetic retinopathy (DR). DR can develop in anyone living with type 1 or type 2 diabetes and other types of diabetes, such as LADA. In 2020, an estimated 103 million adults had diabetic retinopathy (DR), and over 47 million had vision-threatening retinopathy requiring prompt treatment to preserve vision.
