Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the prevalence of diabetic macular edema (DME) in type 2 diabetic patients with and without diabetic nephropathy (DN) by using optical coherence tomography (OCT).
  • Conducted over a year at Saveetha Medical College, the study included 120 patients—60 without nephropathy and 60 with nephropathy—assessing various health metrics, including blood sugar levels and kidney function.
  • Results indicated that a significantly higher percentage of patients in the nephropathy group had both a longer duration of diabetes and poorer HbA1c levels, with only 1.7% of patients without nephropathy developing DME compared to higher rates in the nephropathy group.

OCT also examines the outer retinal layers, which can predict visual outcomes.
