* Patients with untreated resting mean sitting SBP \< 130 mmHg, mean sitting DBP \< 85 mmHg and with retinal photograph grading level \> 20/10 up to \< 47/47 (on ETDRS severity scale).

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients with the following conditions are excluded from participation on the study:
* Cataract or media opacity of a degree which precludes taking gradable retinal photographs
* Angle closure glaucoma, which precludes pharmacological dilatation of the pupil
* History or presence of proliferative retinopathy
* History or presence of clinical significant macular oedema (CSME)
* History or evidence of photocoagulation of the retina
* Other retinal conditions which may mask assessment, eg, retinal vein occlusion
* Positive micral dipstick test

* Need of treatment with ACE-inhibitor
* Haemodynamically significant aortic or mitral valve stenosis
* Known renal artery stenosis or kidney transplantation
* Hypersensitivity to study drug

C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus, as determined by the new American Diabetes Association guidelines, which include a fasting plasma glucose level greater than 126 mg/dl (7.0 mmol/l), or a 2-hour postload value in the oral glucose tolerance test of greater than 200 mg/dl, with confirmation by a retest
* For participants aged 40 years or older, history of CVD (heart attack, stroke, history of coronary revascularization, history of peripheral or carotid revascularization, or demonstrated angina)
* For participants aged 55 years or older, a history of CVD is not required, but participant must be considered to be at high risk for experiencing a CVD event due to existing CVD, subclinical disease, or 2+ CVD risk factors
* HbA1c 7.5%-9% (if on more drugs) or 7.5%-11% (if on fewer drugs)
