New norms to reduce out-of-pocket costs

- KAVITA BAJELI-DATT @ New Delhi

INDIA is not only the "diabetes capital" of the world but also the "diabetic retinopathy (DR) capital" too, said experts here.

They attributed the lack of awareness among physicians and the public for a surge of this eye condition that can cause vision loss and blindness among diabetics.

According to experts, currently, 85% of diabetic patients are unaware that diabetes can impact vision and have never undergone a retinal examination. Concerned experts met recently to develop revised India-specific national guidelines for the detection and management of DR.
