Background-. It is essential to evaluate the amount of endothelial cell damage in diabetes patient and diabetic retinopathy patients.
Objectives- Relate thickness of central cornea in type 2 diabetes mellitus patient without diabetic retinopathy with same sex and same age matched normal person .To associate (CCT) of type 2 DM patient with diabetic retinopathy with period in addition to gender matched normal person.Compare corneal endothelial variations in patient with diabetes mellitus without diabetic retinopathy age/sex matched normal person.To compare corneal endothelial changes in patient with diabetes mellitus with diabetic retinopathy with age/sex matched normal person.To link the endothelial cell density (ECD) and percentage polymegathism in addition to pleomorphism in patient with diabetes mellitus without diabetic retinopathy with age/sex matched individual. To compare the endothelial cell thickness and percentage polymegathism and pleomorphism in patient with diabetes mellitus with diabetic retinopathy
Results The central corneal thickness is likely to be more in type 2 diabetes patients than non-diabetic individual. The endothelial cell changes are more in type 2 diabetes patient than non – diabetic individual.
