[T/F] The biggest risk factor in the occurrence & progression of diabetic retinopathy is duration of diabetes mellitus.
T
[T/F] Visual symptoms of floaters & flashes or photopsias can come from vitreous syneresis.
T
[T/F] Complaints of micropsia & metamorphopsia point to retinal pathology, particularly the macula.
T
[T/F] Nonrhegmatogenous retinal detachment can be caused by exudates from choroidal vessels as in accelerating hypertension (e.g. eclampsia).
T
[T/F] The 2 true ocular emergencies are chemical burns of the eye and central retinal vein occlusion.
