The present review provides an overview of recent research describing functional changes to the retinal vasculature in very early diabetes. The research focuses on the streptozotocin rat model after 4-6 weeks of induced diabetes and describes functional changes to retinal blood flow, vascular control and retinal oxygenation, as well as a strong vasodilatory response to insulin in the retinal vasculature. The review raises the question of whether choroid dysfunction is also a feature of diabetic retinopathy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
