Resumen
RODRIGUEZ RODRIGUEZ, Beatriz et al. National strategy for the prevention of blindness due to diabetic retinopathy. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2015, vol.28, n.1, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3070.
The number of patients with diabetes is on the increase, but we still have time to work in the early diagnosis and due treatment of diabetic retinopathy to prevent the visual loss in these patients. A guideline for the prevention of blindness due diabetic retinopathy involving the three levels of care was set. An analysis of the present epidemiological situation in Cuba and worldwide was made, taking into account the duly equipped facilities with specialized medical staff for the diagnoses and treatment of the diabetic retinopathy. Strategies are being drawn up for the development of the program, in a joint effort to improve the visual quality of the diabetic patients.
