Abstract

People with diabetes complications under many tests. For diabetic retinopa-thy, we do many tests like, ophthalmoscopy which is done in clinical examination & Fundus Fluorescein Angiography (FFA), etc. This study has been con-ducted to evaluate the use of Fundus fluorescein angiography in DM patients and its comparison with clinical evaluation for early detection and assessment of the stage of diabetic retinopathy. The current study looked for ophthalmology and the diagnostic potential of FFA in the diagnosis of ophthalmic retinopathy findings because both facilities may not be available everywhere. So look for and provide better options for diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy. Diabetic maculopathy is also a clear finding on direct eye examination. We found that there was a significant correlation between the age groups of the patients: Diabetes, and the development of diabetic retinopathy. No signifi-cant association with the sex of patients was observed in the event of retinopa-thy. In diabetic patients younger than five years of age or those who are in the early stage of diabetic retinopathy, we found that the initial pathological changes that could not be seen on ophthalmoscopy were evident on FFA. The procedure is useful in diagnosis, treatment, follow-up of patients, maintain a permanent record of the retinopathy staging, study the course of the disease, and response to the procedure.
