Purpose.
To assess the tear film quantity and correlate it with the quality and stability of the tear film in diabetics and compare them to age matched controls.
Introduction.
Diabetes affects tear film parameters in multiple ways.
Poor metabolic control and neuropathy are postulated factors.
To further understand how diabetes affects tear film parameters this study was conducted.
Subjects and Methods.
Tear meniscus height was measured by anterior segment OCT, along with tear thinning time, a subtype of noninvasive tear break-up time, and blinking rate per minute which were all recorded for 22 diabetic patients.
Correlations between these tear film parameters were studied and then compared to 16 age matched controls.
Results.
A statistically significant difference was found in blinking rate between the diabetic and the control group (P=0.002), with higher blinking rate among diabetics.
All tear film parameters were negatively correlated with duration of diabetes.
A positive correlation was found between tear film volume and stability.
Conclusion.
Diabetes affects the tear film in various ways.
Diabetics should be examined for dry eye signs even in absence of symptoms which may be masked by associated neuropathy.
Duration of diabetes has an impact on tear film status.
