Diabetic retinopathy is the most common cause of visual loss in United Kingdom. A systematic medline search was conducted initially using the following keywords: clinical trials, diabetic retinopathy, hyperglycemia, macular edema, visual loss. Relevant abstracts and computer links to these abstracts were reviewed and a preliminary list of possible articles from this search was compiled. Next, the original articles from the list were retrieved and evaluated.
