What you'll learn
In the course on oxidative stress in diabetic retinopathy, the following aspects, we learned on diabetes are important as a prerequisite:
- Metabolic disturbances in diabetes leading to the development of Oxidative stress
- Hyperglycemia induced oxidative stress & pathological changes in the retina
- Diabetic retinopathy and nephropathy both caused by oxidative stress.
- Role of antioxidants both endogenous and exogenous in modulating oxidative stress in the retina
- Current treatment options targeting oxidative stress in diabetic retinopathy
- Empowering the patient: Patient education in the management of diabetes
Who should attend?
- Physicians and health care specialists involved in the management of patients with type 2 diabetes
Key concepts covered include:
Objectives of the course include the following aspects:
- Metabolic disturbances in diabetes leading to the development of Oxidative stress
- Hyperglycaemia induced oxidative stress & pathological changes in the retina
- Microvascular complications of diabetes – Diabetic retinopathy and nephropathy caused by oxidative stress
- Role of antioxidants both endogenous and exogenous in modulating oxidative stress in the retina
- Current treatment options targeting oxidative stress in diabetic retinopathy
- Modulation of OS through antioxidants
A thorough understanding of the above is considered very important for the successful management of patients with diabetes.
