Magnitude of diabetic retinopathy in outpatients with cataract in a tertiary care hospital: A cross sectional study

Santosh Jajodia, Sangita Basantaray.


Abstract
Aim: To determine the incidence of diabetic retinopathy in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus and the relationship between the condition severity, gender, and age.
Methods: This cross-sectional research was carried out in the Department of Ophthalmology, Hi-Tech Medical College and Hospital, Bhubaneswar, Odisha. A total of 100 people with type 2 diabetes mellitus had thorough ocular exams for diabetic retinopathy. To classify the severity of retinopathy, the International Classification of Diabetic Retinopathy was used.
Results: 17.3% of people had diabetic retinopathy overall, of which 55.16% were men and 44.7% were women. 91.8% of patients had non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy, of which 7% had proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Of these, 51.6% had mild, 35.5% had moderate, and 4.5% had severe retinopathy. 13% of the people examined were found to have macular edoema, which was later classified as 42.7% mild, 31.3% moderate, and 25.70% severe edoema.
Conclusion: The study found that even while vision was close to normal, the presence of DR supports the need for routine ocular evaluations in diabetic individuals. Patients who were evaluated for the study as part of our research were made aware of DR.

Key words: Diabetes, Retinopathy, Cataract
