No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Some studies indicated that the diabetic corneal endothelium is morphologically abnormal and may be at risk in any intraocular surgical procedure, while others showed no significant differences between diabetic and non-diabetic corneal endothelium.The purpose of this study is to investigate the differences in corneal endothelial cell density and morphology in diabetic patients and normal patients after phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation.To investigate if haemoglobin A1c can be used as a predictor of corneal endothelial cell changes after phacoemulsification.
