Beyond HbA1c: Environmental Risk Factors for Diabetic Retinopathy.
Diabetic retinopathy affects 4.2 million people in the United States and is the leading cause of blindness in working-aged people.

While HbA1c and duration of disease are known risk factors, they account for only 11% of the risk of developing microvascular complications from the disease.
