A 42-year-old lady has been established on a bibasal-bolus regimen for her type 1 diabetes for many years

A 42-year-old lady has been established on a bibasal-bolus regimen for her type 1 diabetes for many years. She is happy to continue this regimen as she has very good glycaemic control but has recently developed blurred vision and is now requiring corrective lenses. Her optician has advised that this may be due to his basal insulin detemir. When seen in clinic, her regimen is kept the same, but the Detemir is changed to a similar long-acting insulin. 

For the patient above, please select which ONE of the insulins is being alluded to in the question. Select ONE option from the list above.
