Abstract

Type 2 diabetes is associated with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Therefore, retinal and cerebral neurodegeneration may run in parallel. To assess whether there was a difference in retinal structure, vessel, and metabolic parameters in individuals with MCI. We found those with MCI had a thinner macular retinal nerve fiber layer, macular ganglion cell layer, and less venular oxygen saturation. We suggest noninvasive retinal markers may be useful to detect those at risk of cognitive dysfunction.
