The Effect Of Short-Termfluctuation Of Glycemic Control Over Central Corneal Thickness In Newly Diagnosed Diabetic Patients.

Abstract

To study the relationship between central corneal thickness(CCT) and short-term glycemiclevel fluctuations inpatients with newly diagnosed type-II diabetes mellitus attending our hospital.METHODS: Prospective study done in 100 patientsin the department of Ophthalmology, Meenakshi Medical College hospital and Research Institute. Patients with newly diagnosed type-II diabetes mellitus who attended during July to December 2019, in the state of hyperglycemia on presentation satisfying our inclusion criteria were selected.CCT wasmeasured in both hyperglycemic and euglycemic state in same individuals within a period of one month. RESULT:It was found there is not much of changes in the values of CCT in both hyperglycemic and euglycemic state in short period of time of one month. CONCLUSION: There was no difference in central corneal thickness in hyperglycaemic and euglycemic state measured in same individuals which was achieved within a span ofone month.
