This review summarizes studies showing that diabetic retinopathy, a uniquely assessable measure of diabetic microvascular damage, is strongly associated with excess risks of systemic vascular complications, including stroke, coronary heart disease, heart failure, and nephropathy. It suggests that retinopathy reflects widespread microcirculatory disease and may serve as a novel biomarker for vascular disease risk in diabetic patients.
