title: [Macular changes in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus].
abstract: We have studied, ophthalmoscopically and angiographically the macular modifications arisen within diabetic retinopathy in 79 individuals with insulin-dependent diabetes (IDD). The 79 patients presented an unbalanced diabetes, suffering from the disease for 5-8 years. The age of these patients ranged between 29 and 41. In all these cases we have noticed the predominance of the macular form of the diabetic retinopathy. Often the disease showed non-typical modifications. It is important to mention that in 213 of the cases we have found incipient lesions of diabetic retinopathy in the ocular fundus: the lesions were few in many cases.
