Abstract
Vitreous fluorophotometry was used to investigate the effect of Bendaz ac lysine on the blood retinal barrier in 12 insulin-dependent diabeti cs with mild background retinopathy. The study was a randomized, doubl e blind, cross-over trial, drug versus Placebo. Each treatment period was of 4 months. The vitreous penetration coefficient was reduced by 2 1% (95% c.i. 12, 30; p = 0.001) by treatment with respect to Placebo.
