Abstrakt:	Purpose: To evaluate whether the distribution of diabetic retinopathy (DR) lesions differs among various ethnicities. Design: Multi-center, retrospective cohort study. Methods: We accrued a cohort of 226 eyes with DR consisting of 51 East Asian eyes, 102 South Asian eyes, 30 Caucasian eyes, and 43 Latino eyes, all evaluated with ultrawide field pseudocolor images. Images were manually annotated for DR lesions and were classified as having predominantly peripheral lesions (PPL) or predominantly central lesions (PCL) using 4 quantitative methods. The percent distribution of PCL to PPL was compared among different ethnicities. Results: Using a single-field lesion frequency-based method, East Asian eyes more frequently demonstrated a PPL distribution (86.3%), whereas South Asian eyes more frequently demonstrated a PCL distribution (64.7%). These findings were also observed when considering only the subset of treatment-naïve eyes. Furthermore, in treatment-naïve eyes without proliferative DR, the percent distribution of PPL to PCL in East Asian eyes was significantly different when compared to other ethnicities (P < .0001 South Asian, P = .035 Caucasian, P = .0003 Latino). The majority of patients (60%-78%) in all ethnic groups had moderate nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy(NPDR), and the same difference between East Asian and South Asian eyes was observed in this subgroup. Conclusions: The distribution of DR lesions appears to vary among different ethnicities. DR lesions tend to be distributed more peripherally in East Asian eyes compared to other ethnic groups, particularly South Asian eyes, which tend to have more central disease. The prognostic implications of these ethnic differences in DR lesion distribution require further investigation. (Copyright © 2022. Published by Elsevier Inc.)
