title: Smokers and diabetic maculopathy.
abstract: Of 200 examined diabetic patients with diabetic maculopathy there were 27 smokers, 23 of them diabetics of type II. In comparison with the control group of 23 diabetics with diabetic maculopathy-nonsmokers, the smokers showed a significantly higher incidence of the ischemic type of diabetic maculopathy which, however, did not manifest itself more markedly in their visual acuity.
