Description

The number of subjects who underwent funduscopy in our center's human dry dock from April 2000 to March 2001 was 3,087. The incidence of retinal arteriosclerosis was 290 cases (9.4%) (arteiosclerosis group). Compared with normal group which consisted of 300 agematched subjects from the same department, the frequency of hypertension, impaired glucose tolerance were significantly higher. The frequency of obesity and hyperlipidemia were not significantly higher. And the frequency of the subjects which had more than one risk factor of systemic arteriosclerosis were significantly higher, compared with normal group. Therefore, we need to utilize the results of funduscopy in order to prevent arteriosclerotic diseases.
