Změny tkání oka u pacientů s diabetem mellitem s důrazem na tkáně povrchu oka

Introduction: Relation of diabetes mellitus (DM) to the diabetic keratopathy and various stages of corneal nerve fiber damage has been well accepted. A possible association between changes in the cornea of diabetic patients and diabetic retinopathy (DR), DM duration, and age at the time of DM diagnosis were evaluated. Neuropathies are among the most common long-term complications of diabetes mellitus. Good glycemic control is essential in prevention of this complication. DM patients with similar mean glucose levels or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels often exhibit differences in evaluation of diabetic complications. One reason for these differences may be the differences in glucose variability. DM patients with similar mean glucose levels or HbA1c levels often exhibit differences in glucose variability Hypothesis: Diabetes mellitus damages the subbasal nerve fibers of the corneal and affects the density of epithelial, endothelial and stromal cells. Corneal changes in patients with DM are dependent on the degree of diabetic retinopathy (DR), age at diagnosis, duration of DM, and compensation parameters. Purpose: To compare changes in cell density in individual layers of cornea and status of subbasal nerve fibers in patients with type 1 DM (DM 1) and in healthy subjects. To evaluate the dependence...
