Retinal blood flow dysregulation precedes neural retinal dysfunction in type 2 diabetic mice

Abstract We investigated and compared the susceptibility of retinal blood flow regulation and neural function in mice developing type 2 diabetes. The longitudinal changes in retinal neuronal function and blood flow responses to a 10-min systemic hyperoxia and a 3-min flicker stimulation were evaluat...
