Diabetic Retinopathy PowerPoint Template Content

• The template starts with an impressive cover slide with illustrations of diabetic retinopathy.

• The Diabetic Retinopathy PPT template provides a table of contents to explore the main topics of your medical presentation about diabetic retinopathy.

Introduction to diabetic retinopathy

• Diabetic retinopathy is a microvascular consequence of diabetes mellitus that can lead to blindness and visual impairment in people with diabetes. The retina's blood vessels are damaged.
• Introductory medical slides represent the illustrated anatomy of the eye and retina.
• You can also notice an illustration of the normal vision mechanism.
• This section also provides comparative illustrations between normal retina and diabetic retinopathy.

Prevalence of diabetic retinopathy

• The diabetic retinopathy PowerPoint template provides various medical infographics, diabetic graphs, maps and charts to help you visualize your data.
• Complex medical statistics become readily clear through the power of animation, driving a deeper understanding of data for healthcare professionals.

Causes of diabetic retinopathy

• High blood sugar due to diabetes is the essential cause of retinopathy.

Risk factors

• According to the American Ophthalmic Association (AOA), many risk factors may contribute to the disease, like:

1. Diabetes (type 1 or type 2).
2. Hispanics and African Americans
3. have high blood pressure.
4. and high cholesterol.
5. Pregnancy.
6. Family History.

Clinical presentation and symptoms

• In this section of the diabetic retinopathy PPT template, you can notice illustrations and visuals to represent clinical features and symptoms of the disease in memorable designs.

Symptoms of advanced diabetic retinopathy include:

• Progressively declining vision.
• Abrupt loss of vision, forms appearing in your area of view (floaters).
• Eyesight that is hazy or uneven.
• Redness or soreness in the eyes that interferes with night vision.

Clinical signs of advanced diabetic retinopathy

• According to Medscape, the clinical signs include:

1. Microaneurysms.
2. Dot and blot hemorrhages.
3. Flame-shaped hemorrhage.
4. Retinal edema and hard exudates.
5. Cotton-wool spots.
6. Venous loops and venous beading.
7. Intraretinal microvascular abnormalities.
8. Macular edema.

Pathophysiology of diabetic retinopathy

• In this section, the diabetic PowerPoint template provides visually stunning animations explaining the pathophysiology of diabetic retinopathy, from mild effects to retinal damage, in detail.

Stages of diabetic retinopathy

• Animated illustrations explain that diabetes retinopathy is classified into:

• NPDR (non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy): classified to

1. Background retinopathy.
2. Pre-proliferative retinopathy.

• PDR (proliferative diabetic retinopathy).

According to Medscape, NPDR (non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy) is graded as follows:

1. Mild: Indicated by the presence of at least one microaneurysm
2. Moderate: Includes the presence of hemorrhages, microaneurysms and hard exudates
3. Severe (4-2-1):  characterized by venous beading in at least two quadrants, intraretinal microvascular anomalies in at least one and hemorrhages and microaneurysms in all four quadrants.

NPDR (non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy) is classified as:

1. Background retinopathy.
2. Pre-proliferative retinopathy.

• According to NHS, Background retinopathy is a condition in which the blood arteries in the back of the eyes have developed tiny bulges called microaneurysms, which may leak a small amount of blood. No treatment is required at this stage and vision has no impact.
• However, pre-proliferative retinopathy is more severe and widespread changes are seen in the retina, including bleeding into the retina and risky vision and frequent screening is required.

PDR (proliferative diabetic retinopathy)

• PDR is a more severe form of diabetic retinopathy that is characterized by.

1. Neovascularization: Hallmark of PDR.
2. Preretinal hemorrhages.
3. Hemorrhage into the vitreous.
4. Fibrovascular tissue proliferation.
5. Traction retinal detachments.
6. Macular edema.

Diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy

• You can notice that different diagnostic methods and medical devices are illustrated creatively, explaining the following methods:

1. Comprehensive dilated eye exam.
2. Fundus photography.
3. Optical coherence tomography (OCT).
4. Fluorescein angiography (FA).

Complications of diabetic retinopathy

• The diabetes retinopathy PPT template explained the complications with descriptive. Illustrations for:

1. Diabetic macular edema (DME).
2. Neovascular glaucoma.
3. Retinal detachment.
4. Blindness.

Illustrated treatment options

• Treatment options include laser treatment, eye injections, steroids, eye implants and eye surgery.
• Animations in this part will help you understand the mechanism of each treatment and medical device used in the process.

Mechanism of action of anti-VEGF agents

• You can also notice the mechanism of action in intravitreal injections of anti-VEGF agents (vascular endothelial growth factor), explained with animation.
• The animated illustration explains that lowering levels of VEGF with anti-VEGF drugs reduces its effects on retinal blood vessels, prompting a reduction in macular edema without risk of developing other major eye conditions.

Prevention of diabetic retinopathy

• Medical illustrations and icons in this section can be used for awareness and patient education.
• Primary prevention methods include:

1. Strict glycemic control.
2. Lifestyle modifications.
3. Hypertension control.
4. Lipid control.
5. Weight management.

• Secondary prevention methods include:

1. Early detection and prompt intervention.
2. Regular screening.
