Yes I have. The advice is too lower bg control gradually rather than go from bad control to tight control in a very short space of time, the following site has some excellent information on diabetic retinopathy and the page you are about to view discusses what you have asked:

I think probably the genes we have play the biggest part in everything some people can be very overweight and live a very unhealthy lifestyle and never get diabetes where as others seem to just get it easily.
For what it's worth I think what it perhaps means is if you have been uncontrolled and so very high for a long time and then bring it down that's when the problems begin?
