Dr. Yangjiani Li gave a presentation at The Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology Imaging Annual Meeting (ARVO Imaging 2020) about “Age-controlled correlation between blood HbA1c level and thicknesses of ten retinal layers on macular OCT volume scans”. The study investigated the relationship of blood HbA1c level and thicknesses of ten retinal layers in pre-clinical or early stage diabetes patients and found thinner retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), ganglion cell layer (GCL), inner plexiform layer (IPL), outer nuclear layer (ONL), inner segment (IS), and inner-outer segment junction (IS-OS) are associated with higher HbA1c. The video is be available at ARVOLearn platform.
