Evaluation of retrobulbar circulation in type 2 diabetic patients using color Doppler imaging

Conclusion: Significant changes in resistivity index and flow velocities were observed in the retrobulbar vessels, especially in ophthalmic artery in diabetics compared to controls. CDI with results of increased resistance or decreased flow could be useful to predict individuals at higher risk for developing severe DR.
