Involvement of the retinal microvascular vessels is an almost inevitable consequence of long standing diabetes. In the only large scale epidemiology study of a Caucasian population Klein et al. found some degree of retinopathy in up to 97% of patients with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) after about 15 years diabetes duration and in about 60%
