Laser treatment was given for proliferative retinopathy or diabetic macular edema according to Diabetic Retinopathy Study and Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study criteria. We report on 205 insulin-taking patients whose age at diagnosis was less than 30 years of age. Retinopathy was present in 106 (52%) patients and proliferative retinopathy in 26 (13%). 196 patients (96%) had visual acuity equal or better than 6/12 in their better eye, 6 patients (3%) with 6/18-6/48 in their better eye, and 2 patients (1%) equal or worse than 6/60 in their better eye.
