Is it true that prediabetes increases the risk of diabetic retinopathy?
Unclear. One cross-sectional clinic study reports diabetic retinopathy in about 5.7% of 141 patients with prediabetes, and a laboratory paper notes hyperglycemia (associated with prediabetes) raises risk of vascular complications including retinopathy. Neither compares prediabetic to normoglycemic people, so the evidence only partially supports the claim.
