Ophthalmology places a major role in the management of microangiopathic diabetic complications mainly addressing the retinal circulation. Recently, it could be demonstrated that small fibre neuropathy is also affecting corneal innervation at an early stage. Discussions are ongoing whether retinal nerve fibres assessable by high resolution OCT are also involved.
Unexpectedly, there is no close correlation between microangiopathy and small fibre neuropathy as demonstrated in corneal nerve density.
Experts will highlight new insights in possible pathomechanisms of both aspects of the disease and will discuss preventive and therapeutic options for the First and Third World.
