Additionally, an increasingly earlier age of onset results in more complications, such as diabetic retinopathy, leading to increased annual medical costs and poorer quality of life. Therefore, the ability to rapidly and non-invasively detect diabetes and other retinal diseases at the earliest stages is critical to saving patients’ vision and improving their overall quality of life. Retinal metabolic analysis, a measure that the detects the fluorescence of flavoproteins critical to ATP generation, allows ophthalmologists and optometrists to identity retinal diseases earlier in the disease process and intervene before irreversible tissue damage and loss of visual acuity occurs. 2016-05-27 English text Case Western Reserve University School of Graduate Studies / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=case1458921113 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=case1458921113 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
