Popis: This article outlines the pathophysiology of diabetic retinopathy, its epidemiology, and its diagnosis. Recommendations for management of the pregnant diabetic patient through the team approach has resulted in a dramatic improvement in maternal and fetal complications during pregnancy. By including a retinal specialist in the team during each trimester, the effects of pregnancy on the progression of diabetic retinopathy should be nearly identical to that of the non-pregnant patient.
