[QUOTE="MarkMunday, post: 2302576, member: 525839"] Most of us have background retinopathy at some stage. Isolated aneurysms that usually disappear if control is good. Retinopathy is only a problem if it becomes proliferative. Because of blockages, new blood vessels are formed. They are fragile and when they burst, treatment is required. During my 43 years of T1, there have been some aneurysms, but they are all gone now. Some people seem to get get proliferative retinopathy in spite of maintaining good control, but we can only do our best. [/QUOTE]
