Central corneal thickness increase due to stromal thickening with diabetic peripheral neuropathy severity

Cornea Aug 12, 2018

Kumar N, et al. - In this cross-sectional study, researchers determined the link between central corneal thickness (CCT) and diabetes disease severity among patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) vs controls. They used ANOVA to assess the link between CCT and DPN. Findings demonstrated that an increase in stromal thickness accounted for the observed increase in CCT with DPN severity. Significant clinical implications of CCT increase associated with DPN were suggested that included glaucoma progression, keratoconus susceptibility, and intraocular pressure assessment. These should be accounted for when assessing patients with diabetes.
