There are many topics in clinical studies of diabetic retinopathy (DR). The current hot topics include the relationship between DR and systemic diseases, major factors for initiation and progression of DR, early DR screening strategies, DR prevention strategies and how to improve the therapeutic effects of DR. However, due to the complexity of DR pathogenesis, multiple risk factors, long cycle of DR prevention and control, it is difficult to exclude all the confounding factors in the DR clinical research. From the long-term perspective, delaying the occurrence and progression of DR and establishing an efficient and practical prevention and control system is the focus of the future DR research in China.
