Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • \- COPD as a primary diagnosis according to the Global Initiative For Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Lung Disease (GOLD) definition: \*Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a preventable and treatable disease with some significant extrapulmonary effects that may contribute to the severity in individual patients. Its pulmonary component is characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. The airflow limitation is usually progressive and associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lung to noxious particles or gases\*. COPD is diagnosed by a chest physician.
  • \- Clinically stable on the basis of clinical picture by chest physician .
  • \- Treated according to the current international guidelines.
  • \- Permission for voluntary participation. Patients will be asked during baseline assessment and have to sign an informed consent. Patients have the right to withdraw from the study without any negative consequences on their rehabilitation.
  • \-Attending the regular rehabilitation program in Ciro\+ (study part 2\)

Exclusion Criteria

  • \- Lack of motivation for voluntary participation in this study.
  • \- The presence of abnormalities in the lens (e.g. cataract) or retina (e.g. retinal detachment), which makes it impossible to make an image of the retina.
  • \- The presence of severe retinopathy, which makes it impossible to analyze the microvasculature of the retina.
