1 Beyond Retinopathy Joseph J. Pizzimenti, OD, FAAO Course Goal To provide the participant with useful clinical information in the management of patients living with diabetes mellitus. Beyond Retinopathy: Key Factors in Diabetes Wellness! The Eye is an extension of the brain! The anatomy of the eye is structured to serve the functions of the retina! Primary reason for dilation is to detect systemic disease A Global Epidemic. 1 in 3 children born today will develop diabetes in their life 50% of the global diabetes population is undiagnosed Up to 50% of diabetes is detected because of a clinical complication (e.g. retinopathy, nephropathy) 7 th leading cause of death in the US > 25 million people with diabetes, costing $132 billon 75 million have pre-diabetes leading cause of new blindness, lower limb amputation and renal failure Diabetes => a 2-4 fold increased risk of CV disease 1

4 IRMA Capillary Non-perfusion Microaneurysms and IRMA QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS? Novel Ocular Biomarkers for Diabetes Macular Pigment Optical Density (MPOD) Crystalline Lens Autofluorescence (CLA) The Importance of Macular Pigments MPOD--HFP with QuantifEye " Serum levels of lutein and zeaxanthin are inversely associated with type 2 DM and impaired glucose metabolism. " A recent study showed that type 2 patients with or without retinopathy had reduced MPOD compared to non-diabetic patients. In addition, researchers observed an inverse correlation between MPOD and HbA1c levels. Davies NP, Morland AB. Color matching in diabetes: optical density of the crystalline lens and macular pigments. Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci Jan;43(1): Lima VC, Rosen RB, Maia M, et al. Macular pigment optical density measured by dual-wavelength autofluorescence imaging in diabetic and nondiabetic patients: a comparative study. Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci Nov;51(11):

5 Crystalline Lens Autofluorescence (CLA) CLA with ClearPath DS-120 " CLA identifies elevated advanced glycosolated end-products (AGEs) a biomarker highly correlated to glycemic status prior to the presentation of earlystage complications of DM. " Subjects with poor long-term glycemic control had significantly higher levels of lens AGEs compared to age-matched healthy controls. Yu NT, Krantz BS, Eppstein JA, et al.

Glycemic Control Hb A1C under 7% (ADA), (AACE <6.5%) Can be higher in patients with CVD, hypoglycemia, shorter life expectancy and children ( 7%- 8% ) ACCORD vs. ADVANCE studies #2. Hypertension Patients with diabetes need a BP of 125/80 or better #3. Dyslipidemia Target LDL cholesterol level for men and women with diabetes is <100mg/dL. For HDL, the target is >40mg/dL for men and >50mg/dL for women. Triglycerides < 150 mg/dl #4. Sleep Apnea needs to be ruled out/treated CPAP - reduces nocturnal hypertension, increases oxygen, decreases FBS Activity of Hormones #5. Anemia needs to be ruled out/treated Hemaglobin needs to be above 11 Procrit (E-poetin alfa) needs to be considered if Hb below 9 Starts early, has negative impact on CV morbidity, mortality #6. Kidney Disease Proteinuria (albuminuria) Starlings Law (hydrostatic vs. osmotic pressure) mg = microalbumninuria 300 mg or more = albuminuria ADA recommends yearly urinalysis followed by GFR Start ACE inhibitors = renoprotective #7. Obesity BMI (body mass index) less than better if less than 25 AACE recommends Bariatric surgery for type 2 patients with BMI > to 35 kg/m2.
