简要总结
This is a cross-sectional comparative study comparing tear film and ocular surface alterations between diabetics and non-diabetics. This study will be conducted in Guru Nanak Eye Centre. It will comprise of two groups with sample size of 20 per group. Primary outcome will be mean change in Impression Cytology score of both groups. Secondary outcome comprises of mean change in Ocular Surface Disease Index scare, TBUT, Schirmer’s score, Ocular surface Staining, tear film biomarker IL-6, Meiboscore, and correlation between ocular surface changes and the tear film biomarker. Also correlation of all ocular surface changes with duration and severity of diabetes.
