5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is a therapeutic strategy for protecting organs or tissue against the detrimental effects of acute ischemia-reperfusion injury. It remains unknown whether this can be used in retinal ischemic diseases. The purpose of the present study is to examine if the autoregulation of retinal vessel diameters in diabetic patients change after remote ischemic conditioning and if the observations are different from what have been observed in normal persons.
