Abstract

Hyperglycemia is a prevalent feature of diabetes mellitus (DM), which is a chronic metabolic disease. Such prolonged condition of abnormal glucose level leads to macro- and microvascular complications. The eye is one of the major organs affected by DM. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the main microvascular complications associated with DM, which is the leading cause of blindness in the working age population. Few significant ocular manifestations of DM include cataract, glaucoma, ischemic optic neuropathy, cranial nerve palsies, and recurrent corneal erosion syndrome. In the present study, DR has been characterized as an important complication of DM. In addition, less well-known complications have also been reviewed with an aim at sensitizing clinicians involved in treating DM patients. This will, in turn, promote an early diagnosis and treatment of the life-threatening diabetic complications.
