Follow up is crucial to the effective management of diabetic retinopathy. Objectives: To Measure the percent of change in Knowledge, attitude, and practice about diabetic retinopathy after the interventional program and its frequency in Diabetic patients. Methods: An interventional study was conducted on 70 diabetic patients. The study was applied in the diabetes clinic at Zagazig University hospital.

Patients were interviewed using Fahmy’s questionnaire to assess the socio-demographic characters and a pre-designed questionnaire for knowledge, attitude, and practice evaluation. Results: The satisfactory knowledge of retinopathy constituted only 8.6% while positive attitude towards retinopathy was found in 35.7 % and only 3 out of 70 patients (4.3%) were had a good practice of diabetic retinopathy in the pre-intervention phase. The score of knowledge about Diabetes mellitus and diabetic retinopathy significantly increased by 116.58 % after health education also there was a significant increase in a positive attitude and good practice after intervention by 45.5% and 230.7% respectively.
