Description
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ocular state of the population seen at the St. Mary's and Clinica Santa Maria Clinics compared to their awareness and control of their diabetic condition. This information was determined through a retrospective review of records of 199 patients seen at the St. Mary's and Clinica Santa Maria Clinics from April 2002 to December 2003. The review looked at 14 different areas which included clinic, age, gender, zip code, insurance type, last eye exam, dilation at last exam, visual correction, CPT code, duration of diabetes, HbAI c, diagnosis, recall and referral. This information allowed for evaluation of diabetic control and the ocular results of that control.
