Vitamin tablets containing vitamins B6, B9, and B12 were administered twice daily, and several measurements were executed to determine (changed) signs and symptoms of the disease. Vitamin supplementation was shown to have several beneficial effects in patients with diabetic retinopathy after six months of intervention, compared with measurements before supplementation.
