Abstract
Neurodegenerative changes in the diabetic retina occurring before diabetic retinopathy could be inevitable by the altered energy (glucose) metabolism, in the sense that dynamic image-processing activity of the retinal neurons is exclusively dependent on glucose. We therefore investigated the morphological changes in the neural retina, including neuronal cell death, of a streptozotocin-induced model of diabetes.Keywords
