ABSTRACT
Total serum lipids were estimated in diabetics with and without retinopathy compared to normal non-diabetic subjects. It has been found that diabetic patients with retinopathy had significantly higher total serum lipids than diabetic patients Without retinopathy and normal control subjects. This finding supports the view that total serum lipids plays an important role in diabetic retinopathy especially exudative lesions. It also explains the value of drugs or low- fat diet which decrease the serum lipids
