Abstract
Loss of capillaries and macrovessel dilation in the conjunctiva associated with diabetes compares with well-known vessel changes in the retina. Associations between morphologic changes in the conjunctiva and elevated blood pressure were similar but less strong; this may show that diabetic angiopathy predominates in those with both diabetes and elevated blood pressure.
