| Core Tip |
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is closely linked to psychological distress, with social support acting as a key protective factor. This study proposes targeted strategies—including standardized assessments, stratified support systems, and enhanced perceived support—to integrate psychosocial care into DR management, highlighting the value of a biopsychosocial model for improving patient outcomes. |
