    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: The evaluation of changes in ophthalmoscopic examination and fluorescein angiography in children and adolescents with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 100 patients with type I diabetes mellitus aged 9.3-21.5 years (15.76 +/- 2.69), with diabetes duration of 1-13.5 years (6.57 +/- 2.52) were examined. RESULTS: Retinal changes in ophthalmoscopic examination were observed in 12 cases. Fluorescein angiography allowed to detect diabetic retinopathy in 29 patients. There was no correlation between the incidence of retinopathy and the age of patients. Vascular abnormalities were related to the duration of diabetes. Retinopathy was not found in children < 10 years of age.
