Diabetic retinopathy is a common cause of vision loss in industrialized countries and it is now evident that adequate screening protocols can identify the disease at an earlier, more treatable stage. Novel imaging techniques and therapeutic strategies, developed during the past few years and critically reviewed in this paper, may not only increase the standard quality of actual eye care but may also improve access to ophthalmological examinations and compliance with the eye care guidelines for all diabetic patients.
