Abstract

This report presents results of fluorescein angiography performed in 37 patients aged from five to 25 years and treated for diabetes for periods varying from two months to 17 years. Symptoms of microangiopathy were found in eight patients; in 18 others, functional disturbances of the macular pigment epithelium appeared in the form of "window defects." The authors stress the possibility of the occurrence of these initial signs of maculopathy even in the first years following onset of diabetes.
