We evaluated the clinical course of diabetic retinopathy in 227 affected eyes of 151 patients. All the eyes showed, initially, no posterior vitreous detachment (PVD). The ages of the patients averaged 54 years. At the start of the study, the diabetic retinopathy was simple in 92 eyes (41%), preproliferative in 37 eyes (16%) and proliferative in 98 eyes (43%). During the follow-up for 60 months, 39% of simple retinopathy and 86% of preproliferative one progressed to proliferative retinopathy. Panretinal photocoagulation was performed in 201 eyes (89%) and vitrectomy in 56 eyes (25%). The visual acuity averaged 0.6 initially and 0.3 at the end of follow-up. The visual acuity declined below 0.1 in 58 eyes (26%), due to macular edema in 37 eyes, tractional retinal detachment in 8 and neovascular glaucoma in 3 among others. At the end of follow-up, there was no PVD in 122 eyes (54%), partial PVD in 12 (5%) , complete PVD in 26 (11%) in addition to 56 eyes (25%) treated by vitrectomy. The findings show that photocoagulation was of limited value in preventing further proliferation necessitating eventual vitreous surgery.
