Declined incidence of patients treated for vision-threatening diabetic retinopathy in South Korea: a 12-year nationwide population-based study

Jiwon Kim et al.

Summary: The study investigated the age- and sex-specific annual incidence rates of patients treated for VTDR in T2DM patients in South Korea, finding a significant decrease in incidence rates over the study period. Factors such as insulin use, young age, chronic kidney disease, and male sex were associated with increased treatment rates for VTDR, while rural residents had a lower risk compared to metropolitan residents. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment were key in reducing the incidence rate of VTDR in T2DM patients in South Korea.
