Résumé : Diabetic adolescents and young adults have a high risk of becoming blind from proliferative retinopathy (PR). Bad glycemic control can increase the risk of PR up to 20 times. The absence of visual symptoms before the initial vitreous haemorrhage makes the screening for retinopathy necessary once a year from puberty onwards. Controls will be more frequent if risk factors increase, to enable early detection of threatening lesions, making prompt and adequate treatment possible.
