Corneal Endothelial Changes After Phacoemulsification
Conditions
Brief summary
Evaluation of corneal endothelial changes after uneventful phacoemulsification in diabetic and non-diabetic patients using specular biomicroscopy in relation to the level of glcosylated hemoglobin level
Detailed description
86 patients will be divided into two equal groups of diabetic and non-diabetic patients will undergo phacoemulsification of cataract will be evaluated thier endocelium before surgery and 3 weeks after surgery to detect the effect of level of glcosylated hemoglobin on the endothelial changes after uneventful phacoemulsification
Interventions
DEVICESpecular biomicroscopy
Specular microscopy will be done before and 3 weeks after cataract surgery
